Abuzar Not Chopping

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

A player in middle position bet 2,000 on a {3-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{q-Clubs} flop, and Karim Abuzar made it 5,000 on her left. The small blind, who had checked, woke up with an all-in shove for 16,400, forcing the bettor to fold. Abuzar asked for the count and thought for a minute.

"I'll give it to you," he said finally, placing in calling chips.

He needn't have worried, as his {a-Hearts}{q-Spades} dominated his opponent's {q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. The turn and river were {2-Diamonds} and {4-Hearts}.

"Chop," the dealer mistakenly said.

"Is it really?" the player with queen-nine said hopefully.

The dealer apologized and corrected his mistake, and Abuzar took it with a wheel.
