An Unlikely Chop Pot

Level 6 : 300/600, 0 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Shaun Deeb opened with a raise before the pot and he was called by the player on the button and the Schuyler Thornton in the big blind.

The flop was {K-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Thornton checked to Deeb who put out a bet of 600. The button called while Thornton folded.

The turn was the {10-Clubs} and Deeb led again, putting out 1,600. The button called once more.

On the {7-Spades} river, Deeb shoved all in for about 6,000 effective. The button snap called and revealed his {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} but Deeb showed his {K-Hearts}{10-Spades} and the two chopped the pot.

Upon seeing the hands the table got a bit excited, laughing and exchanging a few calls of "no way!" as apparently just before this, the dealer had dealt another chop to two players with the same hand, also in no-limit hold'em.
