Three-Way All In, Three-Way Chop
Level 21
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Maria Konnikova was all in from early position for 200,000 and Andrea Crobu reshoved with a 330,000 from the button. Small blind Fan Zhang then stuck in his 250,000 stack as well and there was a three-way all-in situation.
Maria Konnikova: A♥10♠
Fan Zhang: 9♥9♣
Andrea Crobu: 10♦10♥
Crobu was in a prime position for a double knockout. Everything went smooth on the 6♠5♣3♠4♣ board but the river 7♥ brought a straight on the board. The dealer started counting stacks until the table pointed out that it was a three-way chop.
Crobu stood up in a disappointed fashion while Konnikova could not help but laugh about the situation.
