Michael Binger Chops a Pot

We caught this hand while wandering through the room.

Michael Binger raised from under the gun and action folded back to the blinds, who each called. On a flop of {7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, both blinds check-called Binger's bet. Action checked to Binger again on the turn, which brought the {3-Clubs}. This time, the big blind called while the small blind folded.

Binger led out again when the {J-Diamonds} hit the river, and chopped the pot when the big blind tabled {6-Spades}{A-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades} for the low, while Binger showed {A-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{J-Hearts} for the high. The hand brought Binger's chip stack to 8,500.
