Chopitty Chop Chop

For all of the eliminations, there have still been plenty of chopped pots. Phil Hellmuth and Jorge Arias chopped one then went check-check on the turn of a {7-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} {j-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} board. On the river {a-Diamonds}, Arias checked and then called a bet of 600 from Hellmuth.

"I have a pair of aces," said Hellmuth. He also had a low with {a-Clubs} {q-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {5-Hearts}.

"Well I have two pair," responded Arias. He opened {2-Hearts} {j-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {6-Clubs} for two pair, jacks and deuces, and a worse low. They chopped the pot. Hellmuth has 10,750, while Arias has 3,900.
