Nivel 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Mehdi Chaoui moved all in for 62,000 in early position and Aleksejs Ponakovs asked for a count before calling in the big blind.

Mehdi Chaoui: A♥A♠ All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♣J♥

"I was slowrolling. I deserve it," Ponakovs said upon seeing Chaoui's aces. The board ran out Q♠9♦6♥6♠K♥ and Chaoui doubled up.

"Are we slowrolling? Because I want in on this game," Kayhan Mokri added.

Mokri then raised to 25,000 in the hijack and Alexander Zubov called in the big blind.

The flop came A♦10♥8♠ and Mokri bet 12,000. Zubov raised to 25,000, Mokri reraised to 38,000, and Zubov clicked back to 55,000. Mokri then moved all in.

"Am I getting slowrolled by ten-eight? This is the most obvious slowroll of all time," Mokri said as Zubov took a minute before calling for his last 60,000.

Alexander Zubov: Q♥10♣ All in
Kayhan Mokri: A♣2♣

Mokri was ahead with his pair of aces against Zubov's tens, and Zubov couldn't catch up on the 4♠ turn or 5♣ river,, and he was sent to the rail.

On the first hand back from dinner, Mehdi Chaoui moved all in for 44,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Alexander Zubov. He began rubbing his cards as he took a peek. "Not too much. Let's look together," Chaoui said. Zubov then called to put him at risk.

Mehdi Chaoui: A♠7♠ All in
Alexander Zubov: K♣2♦

The 7♣4♥2♣ flop gave both players a pair, but Chaoui remained ahead with his sevens as the A♦ turn improved him to two pair. The dealer hesitated before turning over the 6♦ river and Chaoui doubled up. "You scared me," Chaoui said as he took the pot.

Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.

In the 18th episode, Connor speaks with author and psychologist Maria Konnikova about her family leaving Russia to come to the US, writing her first story in kindergarten, being mentored by Steven Pinker at Harvard, meeting Erik Seidel for the first time and her 2020 bestseller The Biggest Bluff that explored her poker journey.

Konnikova, a PokerStars ambassador, also talked about her research for an upcoming book into cheating in poker and other games, as well as game integrity rule changes implemented at EPT Barcelona that Konnikova said needed to go even further.

"I think what PokerStars has done is amazing. I think you need to go a step further and not have any electronics anywhere on the table," said Konnikova. "Like, I think phones need to be on the floor, in your bag."

"I would actually also ban sunglasses because ... there's so much technology that (that can enable cheating)."
