Tyler Boyer

Level 14 : Limits 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Daniel Negreanu raised in the cutoff before being three-bet by James Collopy in the big blind. Negreanu made the call to see a flop.

The flop came 3?4?Q? and Collopy bet out, which was called by Negreanu.

The turn was the 9? and Collopy went all in for his last 12,000 which Negreanu called.

James Collopy: A?J? All in
Daniel Negreanu: K?J?

Collopy was ahead with ace-high but would need to fade a king or 10 to stay alive. When the river came A? Collopy was able to secure the double up with his pair of aces.

Despite the double up, just a few hands later Collopy lost a big pot with his straight AxQx against Dan Shak's full house with Kx10x. Collopy was seen exiting the tournament area just a hand later.

Moments later Daniel Negreanu was seen joining Collopy, as he has also been eliminated from the tournament.
