Collopy Makes the Right Call
Level 21
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Ottomar Ladva opened to 115,000 on the button and James Collopy defended his big blind.
Both players checked on the 2♥7♦Q♦ flop and 5♣ turn, but then Collopy led out for approximately 200,000 after the 9♣ completed the board. Ladva tanked for a bit and then announced a raise to 550,000.
Collopy stuck in a call after a bit of thought and Ladva showed A♦10♠ for a bluff.
Collopy turned over A♣9♥ for a rivered pair of nines and was sent the pot.
