Can't Stop Kopp

Kirk Brown

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Short-stacked Katie Kopp moved all in preflop and was called by a player to put her at risk.

Katie Kopp: 10♦10♣ All in
Opponent: A♦A♣

Kopp would need some help to stay alive, and the flop of 8♦J♦9♣ gave her a fighting chance with an open-ended straight draw.

The turn 5♠ did nothing and she began to stand up, but the Q♣ smacked down on the river to give her the straight to score the double.
