Hand #171 - Split Pot, Joe Cada and Eric Buchman

Phil Ivey has the button. Joe Cada opens the pot from under the gun for 1.5 million. Darvin Moon, almost comatose for the last hour, calls in position before action passes to big blind Eric Buchman. He moves all in; Cada quickly moves all in as well! Once Moon flips his cards into the muck we get a look at the hands.

Buchman: {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}
Cada: {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts}

Well that's not very exciting, even less so when the flop comes {J-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}. Things get much, much, MUCH more exciting with the {Q-Clubs} turn. Some people believe that clubs always get there. Could that be the case here?

No. {J-Hearts} on the river. Chop it up, much to Cada's relief.
