Kassam Doubles Through Ponakovs

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

In a three-bet pot to the A?K?8? flop with around 50,000 in the middle, Aleksejs Ponakovs checked. Rehman Kassam jammed for just 16,000 and Ponakovs reluctantly called.

Rehman Kassam: A?K?K?10? All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 6?6?5?5?

"Oh, I am not dead," Ponakovs exclaimed and then instantly added "okay dead" when Kassam further improved with the A? turn to make the J? river a formality.
