Kopp Turns the Nuts

Billy Kopp opened for 125,000 from the hijack and got three callers in Charlie Elias, Blair Rodman and Luis Nargentino.

The flop came down {Q-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {6-Spades} and the action was checked around. The turn was the {J-Diamonds}. Rodman and Nargentino checked to Kopp, who bet 175,000. Elias called, Rodman folded and Nargentino called. The river fell the {6-Hearts} and again it was checked to Kopp. He bet 525,000, Elias called and Nargentino folded.

Kopp showed {K-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} for the straight.

"Nice hand, bully... we're going to be saying that a lot today" quipped Nargentino as Kopp stacked up the pot.
