Kovalski Knocked Out by Zwad

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Fabiano Kovalski
Fabiano Kovalski

Fabiano Kovalski defended his big blind with a short stack against a raise in early position by Finn Zwad. On the J♣9♣3♥ flop, Kovalski checked with 8,400 behind and Zwad bet 2,000 into 3,500. The check-shove by Kovalski followed and Zwad called within a few seconds.

Fabiano Kovalski: 9♥7♣
Finn Zwad: K♦Q♦

The Brazilian was ahead with his second pair but the 10♥ turn instantly improved Zwad to the king-high straight to leave Kovalski drawing dead, whose two pair with the 7♠ river were meaningless.
