Kovalchuk Makes Little Work of Tino to Win His Table

A short-stacked Tino Lechich managed to double through Oleksii Kovalchuk holding {10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} against the latter's {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds} on a {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Spades} board, but it would prove too little too late as Lechich fell a short time later.

It happened when Lechich held {K-Spades}{10-Clubs} and was dominated by the {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} of Kovalchuk. There would be no come-from-behind victory for Lechich this time as the board ran out {4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades}.
