Seire Chops to Stay Alive
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Lucas Seire open-jammed a stack of around 11,000 from middle position and Roberto Rodriguez called in the big blind with a bigger stack.
Lucas Seire: A♣3♣
Roberto Rodriguez: 3♠3♥
Rodriguez' threes were still ahead on the flop of 5♦5♠5♥, but the runout of 3♦9♣ brought the case three for the two to chop the pot with fives full of threes. The dealer started pushing the pot toward Seire before the table pointed out it was a chop.
"I was trying to think how I won; I didn't find a way," laughed Seire.
