Neumann and Dossett Chop One Up

Brett Slezak

Level 15 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn in a blind-on-blind battle between Philip Neumann from the small blind and Douglas Dossett in the big blind.

With the board reading Q♥7♣3♥6♦, Neumann led for 50,000 into a pot of 140,000. After a long tank, Dossett raised to 250,000 effective to put Neumann all-in. Four minutes would roll off the clock before Neumann slid forward his stack to call.

Philip Neumann: Q♦J♦ All in
Douglas Dossett: Q♣J♥

Both players held the same hand and the K♦ river was irrelevant as they chopped the pot.

Overheard from a tablemate, "I was 38 years old when this hand started and now I'm 39."
