Valouev & "Detroit" Al Quartered
Level 13
: 800/1,500, 0 ante
Dmitrii Valouev raised to 3,000 from middle position and received a call from "Detroit" Al Green in the hijack. Matthew Kursar then three-bet to 4,500 from the cutoff, both Valouev and Green called, and the flop came down 
.
Valouev and Green checked, and both called when Kursar bet. The action repeated itself on both the 
turn and 
river and Kursar tabled the 
for the nut flush and a low. Valouev and Green had the 
and 
respectively, which means they chopped the low and got quartered.
Despite losing on that pot, both Valouev and Green are both up on the day.
