Ferri Thinks He's Won... But It's a Chop

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

In a pot that was limped pre-flop, Kemal Ferri checked to Raul Pino. Pino bet 200,000 on a flop of {j-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Clubs}. Ferri check-raised all in and Pino called.

Ferri: {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}, two pair
Pino: {j-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, a pair and a straight draw

The turn {a-Spades} did not improve either player. Ferri thought the {a-Diamonds} river was the tournament-ending card. He stood up and raised both arms in the air in triumph... until he realized it created a chopped pot. Both players were playing two pair, aces and jacks, with a queen kicker.

"No!" he shouted in disbelief. Yes, as it turns out.
