Unlucky Exit for Kovalchuk
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Hacine Chatteur tossed in a T-25,000 chip from the button for a raise before Olekssi Kovalchuk three-bet jammed his final 85,000 in from the small blind. Chatteur took a while but eventually called.
Oleksii Kovalchuk: A?K?
Hacine Chatteur: A?5?
Kovalchuk got his phone out to film the affair, but little did he know he would end up filming his demise. The 5?3?10? paired Chatteur up, and he would remain the only player doing so when the board ran out 4?J?.
Kovalchuk took his bad beat in good spirits and wished everyone good luck before leaving the table.
