Tim Capretta raised from middle position to 120,000, Jim Collopy reraised from middle position to 375,000, and Capretta called.

The flop came 9d4h2d, Capretta checked, Collopy bet 375,000, and Capretta tanked for a while before he called.

The turn card was the 8c, Capretta checked, and Collopy pushed out all of his stack except for a single 5K chip for a bet of 1,495,000.

Capretta went into the tank, and after a while asked for an exact count of the bet. He then tanked for a long time after that before he called.

It wasn’t all in yet, and the river card was the Kc. Capretta checked, Collopy moved all in for 5,000, and Capretta called with 10h10c.

But Collopy turned over KsKh for an unnecessary set of kings on the river, winning the pot to double up in chips.

Jim Collopy  –  4,650,000  (78 bb)
Tim Capretta  –  755,000  (13 bb)
