Kopp Doubles Through Liebeler

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

All the money got in preflop between William Kopp and Eric Liebeler with Kopp at risk with the shorter stack of 745,000.

William Kopp: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}
Eric Liebeler: {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}, which put Kopp in a deep hole as he now needed to catch just straight outs or running cards to stay alive, but the turn was the {J-Diamonds} which now improved Liebeler to the straight but gave Kopp a full nine outs to a full house. The river was one of those as the {K-Diamonds} rolled off, pairing the board and earning the double for Kopp, leaving Liebeler with just 675,000 chips.
