Howearth Survives With a Chop

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Action was three-way on a flop of {Q-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Matt Howearth was first to act and he put out a bet of 1,400. He was called by one player in middle position as well as one player on the button.

The turn was the {A-Clubs} and Howearth moved all in for 5,250. The player in middle position called quickly while the player on the button folded.

Matt Howearth: {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Opponent: {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs}

Howearth was ahead on the flop but had secured a chop unless one of the players tripped up on the river. The river was the {8-Hearts} though, so with that, both players chopped the pot and Howearth survived.
