Well That's No Fun!

Under the gun, Kurt Scheer limped into the pot, and Jean Gaspard bumped it up to 30,000 from middle position. Scheer called in turn, and it was heads up to the flop.

It came down {2-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {10-Hearts}. Scheer passed, opting to check-call a continuation bet of 55,000 from Gaspard.

Fourth street brought the {J-Hearts}. Scheer checked again, and Gaspard moved all in. Scheer quickly called. The entire table stood up as spectators gathered around to scope out what could be the final hand of the evening. But the suspense was short-lived as both players tabled {A-?} {Q-?}, already a lock for a split pot with neither player holding a heart. The river was meaningless, and the half the pot was pushed back to each player.
