Kolkowicz on the Rise, Loosli Falls

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Michael Kolkowicz won two hands in a row to surpass the 300k mark. In the first hand, Sylvain Loosli was all in for his last 9,100 against his countryman holding {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Kolkowicz had {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} and spiked a king on the river to send the former November Niner packing.

A couple of hands later, Gianluca Speranza raised to 2,500 on the button. Kolkowicz three-bet to 8,600 from the small blind and Speranza called. The dealer spread out the {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop, Kolkowicz bet 14,700 and Speranza called. Both players checked the {7-Hearts} on the turn.

On the {3-Spades} river, Kolkowicz seized out 33,600 and casually slid it forward. Speranza took his time before calling it off, but couldn't beat Kolkowicz' {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}.
