Hopkins Wins a Flip
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Joshua Hopkins was looking to eliminate a player from the field but needed to win a classic coinflip in order to do so.
Under the gun: A♦K♠ 
Joshua Hopkins: Q♦Q♠
Hopkins fell behind on the 10♠K♦J♥ flop but improved to a straight on the A♠ turn. His opponent still had outs to a full house but the 10♦ river wasn't the card he was looking for which meant Hopkins took the pot.
