Chop On The Board

Level 33 : 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Joris Springael opened the button to 325,000 and Joe Serock three-bet to 900,000. Springael shoved all in, and Serock called.

Serock: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Springael: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

Serock was at-risk and in bad shape, but when the dealer fanned the {6-Clubs}{4-Spades}{5-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades} board, he would be relieved as the pot was chopped up with a straight on board.
