Collopy Doubles Again; Stacks Even

Jim Collopy - back in the game
Jim Collopy - back in the game

All respect for the physical rail separating the final table from the plebs around it vanished as Jim Collopy made it 84,000, Gus Hansen re-popped to 186,000, Collopy said 584,000 and then called all in to Hansen's push. The sacred final table enclosure was suddenly full of slightly tipsy young men cheering for one side or the other, and the cards were on their backs.

Collopy: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Hansen: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Board: bang! {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

The pro-Queso end of the rail went wild. Hansen meanwhile is now on tilt - he became rather irritated when the dealer took a while to count the stacks, and he tossed his cards away in anger.

Collopy's all in was for 963,000, and the stacks are back to even. Extraordinary.
