Hands #65-67: A Couple Chops and One for Lybaert

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Hand #65: Mark Sleet raised to 150,000 in early position and got calls from Michael Addamo on the button and Taylor Paur in the big blind. The {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} flop checked around and the turn brought the {5-Hearts}.

Paur check-called 150,000 on the {5-Hearts} turn and the river was the {J-Clubs}. Two checks on the river and both players tabled ace-jack for the chop.

Hand #66: Martin Jacobson raised to 150,000 on the button and Bart Lybaert defended his big blind. The flop came {J-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Hearts} and Lybaert checked. Jacobson continued for 225,000 and Lybaert called. The turn was the {3-Hearts} and this time, Lybaert led for 400,000. Jacobson let it go and Lybaert took the pot.

Hand #67: Action folded to the blinds and Lybaert raised to 260,000. Sleet made it 750,000, Lybaert four-bet to 1.9 million and Sleet called.

They checked to the river on {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and Lybaert led 2.3 million. Sleet quickly called and they showed down.

Bart Lybaert: {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}
Mark Sleet: {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Both players had the two pair on the board and an ace kicker to chop the monster pot.

Exact chip counts are being tallied as the next break begins.
