Happy to Chop
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Nicholas Caouette check-raised to 11,000 in middle position after Giuseppe Pantaleo fired 4,400 into the pot of around 18,000 and a flop of Q♣6♣5♦.
The both checked the turn 6♥. Caouette prudently bet 5,000 on the river 6♦. Panataleo, visibly uncertain, took a few seconds before he called.
Caouette showed Q♥J♥ then Pantaleo turned over K♠Q♠ for a chop. The dealer split the pot and Caouette scooped his share. Pantaleo smiled to himself as he got the other half of the pot.
