Thompson, Vazquez Chop it Up

Level 38 : 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante

Jacob Thompson raised to 5,000,000 from under the gun and Anthony Cass called from the button. Alex Vazquez then three-bet to 20,000,000 and called when Thompson shoved all in for about 25,000,000. Cass folded.

Both players showed the same hand, {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} for Vazquez and {a-Clubs}{k-Spades} for Thompson. Neither player hit a flush on the board and they chopped up the blinds and Cass' five million.

Level 38 : 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante

Two hands after they chopped an all in, Jacob Thompson and Alex Vazquez found themselves tangled in another pot.

Vazquez opened to 5,200,000 and called when Thompson shoved his last 28,000,000 in the middle.

Jacob Thompson: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Alex Vazquez, {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

There would be little suspense for this coin flip, as the {3-Hearts}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop gave Vazquez a set and left Thompson looking for a miracle runner-runner to stay alive.

Thompson was drawing dead after the {8-Diamonds} turn and hit the rail in 12th place after the {5-Spades} river completed the board.

Meanwhile, Vazquez pushed his stack above 100,000,000.
