Hopkins Finds River Salvation
Level 20
: 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
A preflop raising war resulted in Neil Patel four-bet shoving from the small blind to put Kevin Hopkins at risk for his last 334,000, and Hopkins snapped it off.
Kevin Hopkins: 
Neil Patel: 
Patel looked primed to score the knockout after the 
flop and 
turn, but the 
river had other ideas, sending Hopkins the double with his rivered pair of jacks.
