Karavas and Covington Score a Knockout
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
John Karavas raised and Colby Covington three-bet to 8,000 on the button. Peter Sanneblad got his last 12,400 in the middle from the big blind. Karavas squeezed to 30,000 only for Covington to push all-in for 141,800.
That instantly sent Karavas into a frenzy and he spun out of his chair.
"Do you have aces again, buddy?" he asked but eventually called with the covering stack.
Peter Sanneblad: J♥9♥ 
Colby Covington: K♥K♠
John Karavas: K♦K♣
The suited one gapper found no help on the A♦Q♣10♥6♣9♠ board and the short stack of Sanneblad was chopped up.
