Cooper's Set Ends Escossi's Main Event Dreams
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
With around 11,000 already in the middle on a board of 9♦4♣3♥2♦, Jason Cooper checked from the cutoff, and Vinicius Escossi bet roughly 9,000 from the button. Cooper quickly check-raised to 30,000, causing Escossi to go into the tank. After pondering for quite some time, Escossi jammed for 52,000, and Cooper instantly called.
Vinicius Escossi: K♥K♦
Jason Cooper: 9♣9♥
Escossi had an overpair with pocket kings, but was behind to Cooper's flopped set of nines.
Escossi was already out of his seat and heading for the exit as the A♠ rolled off on the river, cementing his elimination from the Main Event.
