Collopy Collapses

Jim Collopy

Balazs Botond raised to 16,000 from the hijack before a short-stack pushed all-in for 43,000. Jim Collopy thought for a moment before flat-calling. Botond also called.

The flop came {A-Spades} {J-Clubs} {3-Hearts} and Collopy bet 36,000 to which Botond declared all-in.

Collopy got out of his chair and asked for a count, it was only 51,000 more and the American called tabling {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} but finding Botond with {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} while the short stack showed {A-Clubs} {J-Hearts}.

The turn was the {K-Spades} and the river the {9-Diamonds}.
