Muallem, Pettersen Chop It Up
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Noam Muallem raised to 12,000 in late position, and then William Pettersen moved all in for his remaining 100,000 out of the big blind.
Mauallem asked for a count, and the dealer confirmed the total.
Muallem went in the tank, then counted out 100,000 from his stack and placed it off to the side. He leaned forward and looked at his opponent, and then took a few moments before grabbing a stack to call and put Pettersen at risk.
William Pettersen: A?9?
Noam Muallem: A?3?
The dealer fanned 3?2?4?, giving Muallem the lead. But there was a possibility of a chop between the two players after the first three cards, and it arrived on the turn when 5? hit the board.
The 10? on the river completed the hand and the dealer split up the pot.
