Kovalski Calls Correctly
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
In a heads-up pot on a flop of A♠6♦3♦, Fabiano Kovalski checked in the small blind and Bengt Hallner checked back in early position.
Kovalski checked again on the A♣ turn and Hallner bet 6,000. Kovalski called. Kovalski checked once more on the 5♠ river and Hallner put him to the test with an overbet of 31,000. Kovalski gave it some thought and called.
Hallner could only show king-high with K♦10♥, while Kovalski turned over Q♦Q♥ to win the pot.
