Big Chop

Carl Booth is not afraid to get involved

Three players took a {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop for 60,000 chips each.

On the flop Joe Cabret and Lawrence Gibson checked to Carl Booth. Booth bet 180,000 and Cabret raised him to 450,000. Gibson got out of the way and Booth moved all in for 381,000 more. Cabret made the call leaving about 200,000 chips behind.

The crowd at the rail, who were keenly anticipating the massive pot, were disappointed as Cabret tabled {K-Spades}{q-Spades} and Booth {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for a chopped pot.

The dealer burned and turned the irrelevant turn and river and split the pot.

Booth had a warning for Cabret after the hand, “I promise if you push me, I’ll push back” said Booth.

Cabret wasn’t bothered. “Sounds good to me,” he said in a relaxed tone.
