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.
