Ace-King . . . Chop It Up Again!

Danny 'Brotha D' Leaoasavaii limped in and Tom Grigg made it 250,000 total. Leaoasavaii moved all in for roughly 1,710,000 with Grigg making the call.

Leaoasavaii: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Grigg: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}

With another chop on the cards, the final board of {A-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} would ensure that result as the pot was pushed equally in two different directions.

Tom Grigg opened to 130,000 from the button and Danny 'Brotha D' Leaoasavaii made the call to see a {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop fall.

Leaoasavaii check-called a 150,000-chip bet as the {k-Spades} rolled off on the turn and both players checked.

When the river landed the {4-Diamonds}, Leaoasavaii slid in a bet of 350,000 to force a fold from Grigg as Leaoasavaii collected the pot to move to 1,980,000; and take back the chip lead from Grigg and his 1,900,000-chip stack.

Tom Grigg moved all in from the button and Danny 'Brotha D' Leaoasavaii made the call for his last 590,000.

Leaoasavaii: {7-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Grigg: {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

With Leaoasavaii appearing that he had endured enough of a heads up battle, the {3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} flop was one of the best he could have asked for without taking the lead.

"I can't watch!" stated Grigg as he turned to his rail.

The turn landed the {5-Diamonds} to give Leaoasavaii an additional three outs, and when the river landed the {8-Hearts}, Leaoasavaii doubled through to 1,180,000 in chips as Grigg slipped to 2,700,000 in chips.

Leaoasavaii Below One Million

Grigg fired out 150,000 on the {3-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{K-Hearts} flop with Leaoasavaii check-calling before the {8-Diamonds} on the turn saw two taps of the table.

The river landed the {A-Clubs} and Grigg's 350,000-chip bet was check-folded by Leaoasavaii as he slipped to 970,000 in chips.
