William Kopp Eliminated in 16th Place ($48,800)

Stanislav Halatenko raised from under the gun and was called by William Kopp in the big blind. The flop brought 10♣9♥6♥ and Kopp check-called a bet worth 200,000. They headed to the 8♣ on the turn and Kopp checked again. Halatenko now fired a bet of 700,000 and the dealer confirmed there were 790,000 in the pot when Kopp inquired, who then called.

The 8♦ river completed the board and Kopp checked the third street in a row. Halatenko paused for just five seconds and announced all-in. A mere thirty seconds later, Kopp called and that triggered some gasps from the other players at the table.

Kopp exposed his J♣10♥9♠7♣ for a jack-high straight but it was no good, as the J♠8♠7♦6♦ of Halatenko had made eights full of sixes.
