Jose Colada Rails Peter Nowicki

Level 11: 600 / 1,200 ante: 1,200

Strong start for Peter Nowicki is given the brakes by the two-time champion Jose Colada. The hand kicks off with a 2500 raise from Colada that's called by Nowicki at hijack. Flop comes 5 Q 3 , Nowicki slides out 3000 then calls Colada's 9000 check-raise.


Same action on the turn J with Nowicki's 25,000 bet answered with a check-raise all in from Colada. Nowicki puts his tournament life on the line.
