Chopping It Up Off Broadway

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

We picked up the action on a {10-Spades}{q-Clubs}{k-Spades} flop when Brazil PokerStars qualifier Christian Kruel checked from the small blind and France's Valentin Messina did the same from the big. Sergio Aido, who we told you about earlier, took the opportunity to bet 850, but he couldn't shake his opponents as both made the call.

All three players checked after the dealer had burned and turned the {3-Hearts}, and then both Kruel and Messina checked the {J-Clubs} river. Aido decided to bet 1,500, Kruel folded, and Messina woke up with a check-raise to 5,500. The situation seemed obvious so Aido shrugged and moved all in. Messina called off with the {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}, and it was a chop pot as Aido held the same straight with the {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}.

Aido is sitting with right around 34,000 while Messina has 18,500.
