Al-Shanti's Jacks are Enough

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Aleksejs Ponakovs opened to 50,000 from early position and was three-bet to 155,000 by Abdullah Al-Shanti in the cutoff. Action folded back around to Ponakovs, who called.

Ponakovs check-called a 70,000 bet from Al-Shanti on the 2?K?6? flop and then both players checked down on the Q? turn and 9? river.

Al-Shanti turned over J?J? and Ponakovs mucked, much to the relief of Al-Shanti.
