Peters Hoped to Chop But Got the "W" Instead
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
At the feature table, David Peters raised to 800,000 from the button with the A♣2♦ and left himself just 5,000 behind. Bojan Gledovic called from the small blind with the A♠7♠ and the big blind folded to bring about a flop of 6♠8♥K♥.
Gledovic tossed in 5,000 and Peters called off. Peters was dominated but the 10♦ turn made it about a 50/50 proposition that he would chop on the river.
The 2♠ wasn't a chop card, but it was even better as Peters actually paired up to score the improbably double.
