No Rude Awakening for Kovalski
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Adam Rude check-raised the 9♥5♣4♠K♣ turn and bet the pot on the 7♠ river as Fabiano Kovalski called it off with the 6♠3♦ for an open-ender that had gotten there. The cards of Rude were not shown as he took a big hit to his stack.
Soon after, Manh Nguyen raised and Gaston Martinez defended his big blind. They headed to the A♦9♣7♦ flop on which Martinez checked, Nguyen bet 200,000. Martinez then check-raised big to 700,000 and both went back and forth in table chat for a minute before Nguyen released his cards into the muck.
