Pagano Eliminates Koop

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Claudio Pagano raised to 1,000 from mid-position and Niko Koop shoved for 5,800 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Pagano who made the call.

Niko Koop: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Claudio Pagano: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

"I normally run quite good in these'" Koop remarked.

The flop came {J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for Koop to still be ahead but Pagano picked up some extra outs to eliminate Koop as he now also had a gutshot to the straight draw.

The turn was the {4-Spades} which didn't change the situation but the {q-Hearts} on the river was one of the cards Pagano was looking for to eliminate Koop for now. Koop made his way to the cashier to pay for his reentry.
