Mike Czopek started the fireworks at Table 3 with a raise to 10,000. He was called by the player to his immediate left. A player in late position moved all in for just shy of 60,000. After thinking for a while, Czopek decided to make the call for most of his stack. The player to his left moved all in - and with Czopek only having about 10,000 left after calling the all in, he made the easy call. The hands were turned over and Mike was in last place with his {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}. The shortest stack who moved all in first had {A-Spades}{J-Spades} while the biggest stack of the three had {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}.

The flop came {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs} giving Czopek a miracle top two. He wasn't feeling confident though as he stood up as if he expected to be eliminated. The turn was the {J-Hearts} and Czopek had more outs to fade. The river was the {2-Spades} and a dazed Mike seemed to not believe he had won the pot. "I'm so paranoid. I was worried about the ten coming," he admitted. Czopek moves near the top of the leader board with the massive pot.
