Afsharorumieh and Burlacu Chop
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Claudiu-Mihai Burlacu came through Day 1b as the chip leader and was tangling in a pot with Afshin Afsharorumieh early on Day 2.
The board read 10♦2♦A♠2♠ and Burlacu had fired a pot-sized bet of 17,000 on the turn from the hijack, which Afsharorumieh called on the button.
A 7♣ filled out the board and Burlacu fired again, this time for 50,500. Afsharorumieh didn't need to think for too long before he called.
Burlacu then flipped A♦Q♣, and Afsharorumieh showed the same hand with A♣Q♠, which meant they chopped up the pot.
