Coleman Overbets the River
Level 12
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Fabiano Kovalski opened the cutoff to 12,000 and David Coleman defended his big blind.
On the 9♣8♣3♥ flop, Coleman check-called a bet of 9,000 from Kovalski.
The turn was the 5♥ and Coleman contemplated for a while before he opted to lead for 13,000. Kovalski did not take long before he called.
The K♠ came on the river. Coleman decided to bet 161,000 with just 1,000 behind for over two times the size of the pot. Kovalski was dubious but he reluctantly folded.
