Sung Rolled Up; Brix Happy To Chop

Stud-8

Eric Brix is thankful that the game was Stud-8 and not just Stud, after chopping a pot against Steve Sung in fortunate circumstances. Brix completed, and Sung raised with Brix calling off his last chips. Brix started with split aces but Sung had rolled up queens! The boards ran out:

Brix: ({A-Spades}{5-Spades}) / {A-Hearts}{6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} / ({10-Hearts})
Sung: ({Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}) / {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs} / ({3-Diamonds})

Sung didn't improve any further but Brix made a seventy-six low to collect half and stay alive with about 13,000.
