Bechara Survives With Split

A player raised under the gun to 3,500 and found one caller in middle position, before Robert Bechara moved all in over the top for 35,000 in total.

The original raiser folded, before the MP player said, "I can't get away from it," before making the call. You can understand why he couldn't get away from his hand as he tabled a powerful {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}, but he was in great shape against Bechara's {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

The first four community cards were spread {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades} and Bechara screamed for a six to chop the pot with a straight, and wouldn't you know it, the {6-Spades} made an appearance to the roar of the table! They split the pot and Bechara survives!
