Kovalski Hits Perfect Runout

Level 28 : 35,000/70,000, 8,750 ante

In the final hand before the scheduled five-minute break, Fabiano "Kovalski1" Kovalski regained a comfortable lead over Steve "Mr. Tim Caum" O'Dwyer.

It was a min-raised pot to the {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop that went check, check, and O'Dwyer check-called 175,000 on the {9-Diamonds} turn. The {j-Spades} fell on the river and Kovalski check-raised from 518,000 to 1,925,000 in order to pick up a call from O'Dwyer.

Kovalski rolled over {j-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for jacks full of nines and that left O'Dwyer with a big chip disadvantage.
