Chop It Up...Eventually

Jamal Sawaqdeh opened with a strangely large raise to 330,000 and Jamal Kunbuz made the call in position.

They took a flop of {K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Sawaqdeh moved all in with Kunbuz making the call. Both players showed down the same hand, ace-king, so a chopped pot was assured.

However, the table waited for several minutes for the ESPN cameras to rush over and get set up to film the action, as is standard for an "all in-call" situation.

Mike Matusow conveyed his annoyance at having to wait for the cameras when they already knew that it was going to result in a chopped pot.
