Jim Collopy Eliminated in 2nd Place (£178,211)

Jim Collopy - 2nd place
Jim Collopy - 2nd place

Gus Hansen opened for 91,000 on the button and Jim Collopy pushed for around 1.2 million.

Gus Hansen said many things while he was contemplating what to do. Among them were, "I'm getting tired," and then a moment later, "This is probably a bit light, but I call."

On their backs.

Collopy: {k-Spades}{4-Spades}
Hansen: {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

Board: {j-Spades}{5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

Collopy stood with his hands behind his back, his head slightly lowered, looking for all the world like a captain going down with his ship. No kings came in for him, nor did his turned flush draw materialise on the river. The best hand held up, and it was all over.

Still, plenty of time for Mr. Collopy - he's only 21, and we suspect we'll see him at another final table pretty soon.
