Blatt Relieved To Chop

Craig Bergeron raised to 6,000 and Dean Blatt made it 9,000 to go. David Bach then capped it at 12,000 and both opponents called.

The flop was {8-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Bach's flop bet was called by two spots. The turn was the {A-Diamonds} and Bach fired another 6,000. Bergeron folded and Blatt tanked for several minutes before calling, leaving himself only 100 in chips behind.

Bach threw out the 100 and Blatt called in the dark as both players remarkably tabled pocket queens! Blatt was very relieved as the meaningless river meant that both players chopped the pot and Blatt stays alive!
