Wigg and Fernandez Chop

Level 2 : 400/800, 800 ante

Georgios Sotiropoulos and Anton Wigg have just taken their seats and Wigg was drawn onto the same table as Ionut Voinea, Eyal Eshkar, Boris Mondrus, and Javier Fernandez.

In the first hand after sitting down, Wigg raised to 2,000 from the cutoff and was called by Javier Fernandez in the big blind.

The flop came {2-Spades}{a-Spades}{a-Hearts}, Fernandez check-called Wigg's continuation-bet of 1,200.

They both checked through the {8-Spades} on the turn and the {10-Diamonds} on the river. Fernandez tabled {k-Spades}{q-Hearts} while Wigg showed {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} for them to split the pot.
