Level 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs

Aleksejs Ponakovs moved all in for 41,000 in the cutoff and Kayhan Mokri called in the big blind.

Aleksejs Ponakovs: Q9 All in
Kayhan Mokri: K3

Ponakovs took the lead on the AQ2 flop with a pair of queens, while the Q turn improved him to trips. "You are so lucky. I run so bad," Mokri said before handing over the pot once the 10 completed the board.

Ponakovs then moved all in again the next hand and Juan Pardo called for 40,000 in the small blind.

Juan Pardo: 22 All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A10

Pardo finished with a full house on the QQ56Q board and this time it was Ponakovs who was forced to hand over the chips he had just won.
