Hopkins Takes a Hit But Still Healthy

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

James Hopkins opened with a raise from the cutoff and the player on the button moved all in for 17,800. Action folded back to Hopkins who called.

James Hopkins: {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

The board ran out {A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Spades} and thought Hopkins made a pair of sixes on the turn, it wasn't enough to do his opponent's flopped pair of aces, so the player doubled up.

Despite losing the pot, Hopkins still sits with a well above average stack of nearly 200,000 chips.
