Koop Falls to Utrobin
Level 3
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
The player in the under-the-gun position raised to 2,300 and was called by the player in the early position. Niko Koop three-bet to 9,500 from mid-position and action folded to Viktor Utrobin in the big blind who four-bet to 23,000. Both the initial raiser and the early position player folded while Koop made the call.
The flop came 
and Utrobin bet another 20,000 which Koop called.
The turn was the 
and now Utrobin checked. Koop shoved for 46,800 and Utrobin snap-called.
Niko Koop: 
Viktor Utrobin: 
Koop had flopped top pair and turned two pair while Utrobin had turned a set of queens.
Koop needed another ace on the river to stay alive but he bricked it and made his way out of the tournament area.
