Aleksejs Ponakovs limped from the hijack, and Kristen Foxen raised to 3,000 on the button. Andre Akkari came along in the big blind, as did Ponakovs.
Akkari checked the 6♦8♣6♣ flop, and Ponakovs checked behind. Foxen continued for 3,000, and Akkari folded. Ponakovs check-raised to 10,000, and Foxen replied with a three-bet to 23,000.
Ponakovs then four-bet to 36,000, and Foxen answered back by five-betting to 49,000. Ponakovs made the call, and checked the 10♥ turn.
"Do you have aces?" asked Foxen before opting to check it back.
Ponakovs then led out on the K♦ river, sliding forward enough chips to put his opponent all in. That sent Foxen into the tank.
"Such a weird hand," observed Foxen as she talked to herself out loud. After a few minutes of consideration, Foxen stuck in the call.
"No," Ponokovs jokingly whined as he revealed Q♣J♣ for missed flush and straight draws. Foxen proudly tabled 9♣9♥, taking down the pot while reflecting on the wild hand with her tablemates.
