Kovalenko Takes a Big One Early
Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player from under the gun limped in before Tobias Peters raised to 4,000 from middle position, receiving calls from Pavel Kovalenko on the button and the original limper.
The flop came A?7?7?. The limper checked, Peters bet 3,000 and Kovalenko called. The limper then clicked it back to 6,000 and received a call from both opponents.
On the 9? turn the limper bet 12,000, forcing a fold from Peters while Kovalenko made the call.
The limper bet another 12,000 on the 4? turn only for Kovalenko to put in a big raise to 79,000. The limper called and showed A?9? for two pair but Kovalenko tabled 10?7? for trip sevens to drag in a pot worth over 200 big blinds.
