Zach Donovan

The heads up battle between Zach Donovan and Jonathan Karamalikis stayed in the Aussie’s favor and he finished up the win to close out his summer.

Donovan raised to 900,000 on the button and Karamalikis shoved for 4,800,000 effective. Donovan called off with A♣8♦ and was in a precarious spot versus the A♠10♠ of Karamalikis.

The J♥9♥8♣ flop paired Donovan but Karamalikis was still live for a straight. The Q♠ turn left only a chop available and the J♠ river did not cooperate.

Donovan collects $114,769 and Karamalikis earns the win. A recap is to be posted shortly.
