Ponakovs Overbet Bluffs Into Set of Davies

Level 3 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Seth Davies opened to 3,500 from under the gun and Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet to 11,000 from a few seats over. Davies called.

Davies checked on the flop of {9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Ponakovs bet 20,000 for nearly a pot-sized bet. Davies called. Davies checked again on the {q-Diamonds} turn and Ponakovs sized up to 55,000. Davies again called.

Davies checked a third time on the {j-Hearts} river and Ponakovs used through a few time banks before betting 245,000 to put Davies all in. Davies quickly called with 216,500 in his stack.

Ponakovs showed a bluff with {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} for ace-high and Davies revealed {q-Hearts}{q-Spades} for a turned set to earn a massive double.
