Gromov and Akyel Happy to Chop the Pot
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ramazan Akyel raised under the gun to 22,000 with Dmitry Gromov three-betting to 52,000 from middle position. When it got back to Akyel, he called to see a flop.
Both players were happy to check the J♣9♠10♦ flop to see the 8♠ land on the turn. Akyel led out for 60,000 and Gromov called.
The 10♠ river caused another two checks and Akyel turned over Q♦Q♣ for a straight, which was good for half the pot because Gromov showed A♦Q♠ for the same straight.
