Everyone Loves a Chopped Pot

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

After Slaven Popov raised preflop and Olivier Ferrero called from the small blind, the flop came down {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{a-Clubs} and Ferrero checked to Popov, who bet 250,000. Ferrero check-raised to 625,000, Popov moved all in, and Ferrero called off for 1.94 million.

Popov: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Ferrero: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Both players held the same hand, but Ferrero was freerolling to running clubs. A red ten on the turn took away any chance of that happening, and the pot was indeed chopped after the {7-Hearts} was put out on the river for good measure.
