Hands #48-52: Kopp Doubles Through Sanders

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Hand #48: Jodie Sanders limped in from the small blind and Jordan Hufty checked his big blind. The flop came {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Sanders check-called a bet of 18,000 from Hufty. Both players checked the {k-Spades} on the turn and the {10-Hearts} on the river. Sanders tabled {8-Spades}{6-Hearts} to take down the pot.

Hand #49: Hufty just called from the small blind and Katie Kopp checked her option. The flop fell {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Hufty led out for 16,000. Kopp called and the {4-Clubs} landed on the turn. Hufty fired another 40,000 only to have Kopp raise to 125,000. Hufty let his hand go and Kopp won the hand.

Hand #50: Hufty raised to 32,000 on the button and Sanders called from the big blind. The flop came {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and both players checked to the {a-Spades} on the turn. Sanders led out for 32,000 and Hufty stuck around to see the {5-Hearts} on the river. Both players checked again and Sanders tabled {k-Spades}{9-Spades} while Hufty showed {a-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} for a pair of aces.

Hand #51: Kopp raised to 34,000 on the button and Hufty called from the big blind. The flop fell {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and Hufty check-called a bet of 27,000 from Kopp. The turn was the {5-Hearts} and both players checked to the {k-Diamonds} on the river. Hufty led out for 68,000 and Kopp raised to 140,000. Hufty quickly called and Kopp turned over {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for just ace-high. Hufty tabled {k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} for two pair and won yet another pot.

Hand #52: Sanders opened to 32,000 on the button and Kopp jammed all in for 207,000 in the big blind. Sanders thought for a moment and then made the call.

Katie Kopp: {a-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Jodie Sanders: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The flop came {8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Spades} and Kopp was still ahead with her ace-high. The turn was the {2-Spades} and the river was the {9-Spades} which improved Kopp's hand to a flush as she doubled up.
