Broadway vs. Broadway

No-Limit Hold'em

Ben "Benba" Lamb opened to 28,000 in late position, Sebastian Ruthenberg called out of the small blind, and the flop came down {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}. Ruthenberg checked, Lamb bet 35,000, and Ruthenberg called.

The turn was the {q-Diamonds}, and Ruthenberg check-called another bet from Lamb - this one was worth 110,000.

The river was the {a-Spades}, Ruthenberg checked a third time, and Lamb fired 145,000. Ruthenberg called.

Ruthenberg: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Lamb: {k-Spades}{4-Spades}

Both players made Broadway on the river, and chopped the pot.
