Kovalchuk Unstoppable

Oleksii Kovalchuk raised it up to 75,000 on the button and Ionel Anton called in the small blind.

The flop came {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}{k-Hearts} and Anton checked. Kovalchuk bet 100,000 and Anton check-raised to 225,000. Kovalchuk made the call and the two saw the turn {9-Hearts}

This time, Anton bet out 330,000 and Kovalchuk raised to 830,000. Anton called.

The river was the {a-Spades} and Anton checked to Kovalchuk who moved all in. Yet again, Anton made a big fold on the river.

Kovalchuk now has around 60% of the chips in play with 6,750,000.

Anton moved down to around 2,200,000 after the hand
