Kings for Song; Kovalski Fires Three Streets
Andrew Hulme A?Q? raised to 300,000 from the cutoff before David Coleman reraised to 800,000 with A?10? from the button. Stephen Song looked down at K?K? in the small blind and four-bet to 1,900,000. Hulme let go of his strong ace, and Coleman did the same.
Some more premiums were dished out on the next deal as Coleman woke up with A?Q?. He made it 250,000. Fabiano Kovalski defended his big blind with 5?4?. The 5?4?3? flop gave Kovalski two pair, while Coleman had a wheel draw. Kovalski opted to lead out for 225,000 and Coleman called. The 3? turn saw Kovalski fire another 300,000 into the middle and Coleman stuck around again.
The 9? river put four diamonds on the board, and Kovalski bet 1,800,000 into a pot of 2,000,000. Coleman snap-folded.
