Chop Chop

Hugh Bell was one card away from being on the wrong end of the official final table bubble when he got it all in with {a-Spades}{q-Spades} against Vincent Jacques' {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}.

Things looked bleak for Bell when the flop came {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}, but when the {4-Spades} came on the turn there was a possibility of a straight that would chop the pot. The straight was made for both players with the {3-Clubs} on the river and Bell got one more opportunity at staying alive to the end.
