Kukowski Loses Race to Favreau
Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Gregory Kukowski was all in preflop for 21,000 from the small blind and Dan Favreau looked him up from middle position.
Gregory Kukowski: 
Dan Favreau: 
Kukowski was ahead with his made hand of sevens but didn't like to hear that a tablemate mucked pocket sevens before the 
flop fell pairing Favreau's ace.
Kukowski knew he was drawing dead and the meaningless 
turn followed by the river completed the board ending his tournament.
