Krupnik, Brooks Chop Up an Opponent
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Kash Corpening raised to 3,000 under the gun and Ariel Krupnik three-bet to 8,000 in early position. The cutoff then moved all in for 32,500 and Russell Brooks reshoved for 35,000 in the big blind. Corpening got out of the way, but Krupnik called to put both opponents at risk.
All-in player: Q♥Q♣ 
Russell Brooks: A♠K♣
Ariel Krupnik: A♦K♦
"Want to chop this one up?" Brooks said to Krupnik as the flop came 9♠10♠3♥, keeping the at-risk player ahead with queens. The turn was the 7♥, but the A♥ fell on the river to give Brooks and Krupnik top pair to chop the pot, sending their opponent to the rail.
"You've got to will it. Manifest," Brooks said.
