Kowalk Shows the Nuts

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Curtis Kowalk
Curtis Kowalk

Action was three handed on a board of {8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs} with around 10,000 in the middle. Both Michael Wyporowich in the small blind and the under-the-gun Curtis Kowalk checked to put action on Michael Kinzer, who bet 4,000 in early position. Wyporowich went into the tank for a bit before finding a fold, and then Kowalk called to bring the river {2-Diamonds}, where Kowalk led out for 6,000 and received a call.

Kowalk showed {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for the nuts, and the dealer pushed forward the board's corresponding three cards. Kinzer sat still for a few moments, until the dealer looked over to him and he shot his cards to the muck.
