Kopp Takes a Cut of Linster's Huge Stack
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
With approximately 500,000 in the pot by the river with a completed board of 10♣2♥J♥3♠6♣, Mike Linster was in the cutoff facing a river bet of 250,000 from William Kopp in early position.
"Do you have any idea how lucky you got on the river," said Linster as he contemplated his decision.
After about a minute of thought, he folded his hand saying that any card but a six and he gets that pot.
Regardless, Linster still has easily the largest stack remaining in the field.
