Collopy's Move Works Out in the End

The first hitch in what's been a quick and painless-looking ascent through the rounds for Martin Kabrhel just occurred, when big blind Jim Collopy made a big shove (137,500) over his raise. He'd picked a bad time to risk it all, as Kabrhel made the call with {A-} {K-}, up against the {Q-Spades} {10-Spades} of Collopy.

The flop: {A-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}
Turn: {6-Clubs}
River: {10-Hearts}!

With that river 275,000 heads back to Jim Collopy's side of the table, effectively returning the game to the beginning except reversing the slight chip lead over. Kabrhel's perfect calm cracked for a moment when the dealer accidentally counted a stack of 50k as one of 100k doubling the amount he had to call, but he soon smiled saying, "It was suited, you deserve it."

Huck Seed, playing at the other end of the same table, leaned over and said, "It was definitely worth it if the dealer is going to give you two to one on your stack at the end," stirring the pot a little.
