Jayaram Kovoorchathoth just won a decent pot against John Pannucci and it gives him around 20 percent of the chips in play.

Kovoorchathoth opened to 35,000 and Pannucci three-bet to 85,000. After Kovoorchathoth called, the dealer laid out {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} on the flop. Both players checked and they went to the turn.

It came {7-Diamonds} and Kovoorchathoth checked to Pannucci, who set the price at 85,000. Kovoorchathoth called and the final card out was the {k-Diamonds}, bringing a one-card flush possibility. Kovoorchathoth checked once more and Pannucci bet 110,000. After a brief spell in the tank, Kovoorchathoth made the call.

Pannucci turned over {a-Spades}{4-Spades} but his pair wasn't good enough to beat a pair of kings with {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} and Kovoorchathoth has moved a long way ahead of the pack.
