Split-Pot Games
Joseph Cheong raised to open the pot at the new level, and Fabrizio Baldassari reraised to 35,000. Cheong likes to re-re-raise as much as any player we've seen, and he made the four-bet to 75,000. Baldassari flatted this time, and off they went.
The dealer flopped 
out on board, and both men checked. Cheong got bets in on the next two streets, though. It was 70,000 on the 
turn and 145,000 after the 
rivered. Baldassari called him down, and the cards were on their backs.
Showdown
Baldassari: 
Cheong: 
Chop it up, fellas.
