Out of the Box! Hopkins is Champ!

5 years ago
Winnar.
All mine!

This tournament is over and the two heads-up players have been released from the isolation booth where this match was taking place. The two players had evened up the chip counts but it was Jason Newburger all-in on the last hand of the tournament.

Newburger raised the pot holding K♠ Q♠ and was re-raised all-in by Hopkins who was holding pocket jacks. The flop came T♦ 9♦ 2♥ and Newburger picked up a gutterball straight draw to go with his overcards. The turn was trhe T♣ and the river was the 4♣, ending the tournament and sending Jason Newburger to the rail in second.

Jason takes $165,707 of runner-up cash while Greg Hopkins banks $269,274 plus the bracelet!

Robert Collison Eliminated 6th ($41,427)

Yuval Bronshtein raises pre-flop with J♥ 4♦ but Robert Collison re-raised all-in with Q♣ 9♦. Bronshtein calls and the flop comes K♠ 10♦ 3♦. Collison is in the lead as we head to the turn which comes 7♠. It was not meant to be for Collison, however, as a dreaded four hit on the river giving Bronshtein the win. Collison is out.

Loung Lost - Gioi Loung Eliminated 7th

5 years ago
Gioi Loung and Yuval Bronshtein get involved in a pot with a board of 8♠ K♣ A♦. It's a crazy flop for both players because Loung holds A♣ K♦ while Bronshtein has K♥ 8♥. Bronshtein bets and Loung re-raises all-in and Bronshtein calls. The turn card is a complete disaster for Loung as it falls 8♦ giving Bronshtein the boat. The river is 2♠ and Loung is gone.

Coburn Crashes - Ray Coburn Eliminated 8th ($22,894)

5 years ago

The short-stack could survive no longer. Ray Coburn has busted in 8th. Here's how his final hand played out:

Coburn raises with pocket fours but is re-raised all-in by Gioi Loung who has A-K. Coburn calls and the flop comes K♦ J♥ 2♠ which gives Loung a pair of kings. The turn card comes 10♣ which leaves Coburn praying for a four on the river. He gets no such luck as the river falls 7♦. Loung is up and Coburn is out.
