Clarke Fades Chop to Double
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
After Marc Ginsberg raised under the gun, action folded to Keith Clarke on the button. Clarke elected to move all in for just under 30,000, and Ginsberg made the call.
Keith Clarke: A♠7♣
Marc Ginsberg: A♦4♦
Ginsberg announced that he was hoping to chop the pot before the flop came down 8♠10♣6♠.
The K♦ turn made a chopped pot more likely, but the river 2♦ secured the double-up for Clarke, with his seven kicker playing.
