Jim Collopy Eliminated in 3rd Place ($973,882)

Livello 28 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

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♠ All in
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.

Danny Tang limped in on the button, Daniel Perkusic completed his small blind and Jim Collopy, who had lost the majority of pots prior to this hand, checked in the big blind.

Persukic then checked on the 7♦9♥J♥ flop, after which Perkusic bet the pot of 2,000,000, the majority of his stack.

Both Tang and Persukic quickly folded, giving some much-needed chips to Collopy.

WATCH: POY Controversy? Seiver Wins 3rd Bracelet of Summer & Joey Ingram is a Wizard | PokerNews Podcast #843

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 28 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

In the 843rd episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined at Level 9 Studio by Joey Ingram, who served as special co-host to talk about the latest happenings at the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) as well as his new partnership with GTO Wizard.

The biggest story is that of Scott Seiver, who captured his third bracelet of the summer and became just the seventh player in history to win three bracelets in the same year. Could he make history by becoming the only player to win four? He has two more weeks to do it.

Despite winning three bracelets, you might be surprised to learn that Seiver is far from a lock to win the 2024 WSOP Player of the Year; in fact, Jeremy Ausmus, who hasn't won a bracelet this summer, isn't too far behind in points thanks to a bevy of final table appearances. Would a non-bracelet winner winning POY over a three-time winner cause a controversy? The crew discusses that very possibility.

Chad then shares pictures and videos from the exclusive Global Poker party that took place at PokerGO Studio on Sunday night, while Ingram opens up about all things GTO Wizard. As usual, you'll also get your dose of other WSOP bracelet winners and a $25K Fantasy update. Oh, and did we mention talk about Daniel Negreanu, Nick Schulman, and Phil Ivey? Because that's all in there too.

A new PokerNews Podcast will drop twice weekly during the 2024 WSOP every Tuesday and Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!
