Coleman Settles for a Chop
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
John Monnette limped from under the gun before Maxx Coleman raised to 3,000 in the small blind. A player in the big blind called as did John Monnette.
Coleman checked following the A♦3♦9♣ flop, prompting the big blind to toss out 4,500. Monnette got out of the way while Coleman made the call.
Action checked through the 7♣ turn to the 8♥ river at which point Coleman pushed a bet of 16,800 into the middle. That sent his opponent into the tank but the big blind eventually made the call and showed down A♥K♥8♠3♠. Coleman held A♣J♠5♣2♥ to take the low and chop the pot to leave neither player fully satisfied.
