Kumar and Zhou Chop

Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Steven Zhou raised to 200,000 from middle position. Anish Kumar re-raised to 500,000 from the small blind. Zhou tanked over his decision for several minutes before making the call.

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Kumar immediately announced all in for just over a million in chips. Zhou snap-called with 510,000 behind.

Kumar: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Zhou: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Kumar had the lead with the superior kicker. Zhou had a draw to the flush.

The board ran out the {k-Hearts} then {a-Clubs}, giving both players two pair with a king-kicker, resulting in a chop.
