Daniel Perkusic limped the button and Jim Collopy did so from the small blind. Danny Tang raised the pot and Collopy called the 1,500,000 total. The J?6?3? flop saw Collopy check and then fold to a bet worth 1,225,000 by Tang.
Collopy then potted the button to win the blinds, flashing the A?K?K?.
One hand later, Collopy was in the big blind with a stack of around 6,300,000 behind. Perkusic raised the pot out of the small blind and Collopy repotted. "All in, all in," he quickly said once Perkusic piled it in and they flipped them over.
Jim Collopy: K?K?3?3?
Daniel Perkusic: A?A?10?3?
"How do we get kings versus aces, and you even have a three as well," a frustrated Collopy said.
There was no escape for him on the J?6?6?Q?4? runout and Collopy exited in third place for $973,882. Both remaining players now take a quick break prior to the heads-up duel.
