Calderaro KO's Kovalchuk

Level 5 : 400/800, 0 ante

Holding {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades} against Oleksii Kovalchuk's {K-}{7-}, and with all the chips in the middle before the flop, James Calderaro was in good shape to notch the knockout and advance out of the first round.

A jack-high board changed nothing, and the best hand held up, sending Calderaro on to Round 2.
