What a Chop

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

The action started with Matt Berkey opening to 50,000 from the hijack, as the table folded around to Seth Berger on the big blind. He raised it up to 156,000, as Berkey thought about his decision. He then opted to bump it up once more, making it 272,000. Berger asked for a count, before bringing his bet back in, and sliding out yet another raise, this time totalling 531,000. Berkey sat motionless for almost a minute, before he announced all in, and was snap called.

Berkey: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Berger: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

Two of the biggest stacks in the room committed all their chip in pre-flop, but they were heading for a chop, as the board ran out {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.
