Big Pot Ends in Chop
Level 35
: 1,250,000/2,500,000, 312,500 ante
In a blind on blind hand, Jonathan Proudfoot raised to more than 26M, leaving just over 1M behind, and Valentyn Kazantsev called to leave himself just over 15M behind. They checked the 
flop and turn, but when Proudfoot checked the 
river, Kazantsev bet enough to put him in. He called it off with the straight on board.
Jonathan Proudfoot: 
Valentyn Kazantsev: 
Board:
Neither player had the diamonds or a bigger straight, so they chopped it up.
