All In and a Call

Level 1 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

We caught the action on a {8-Spades}{J-Hearts}{10-Spades} flop when Tom Dwan had bet 31,000 from the small blind and then called a raise to 80,000 from John Morgan. The dealer burned and turned the {K-Diamonds}, which is when action really heated up.

Dwan checked, Morgan bet 100,000, Dwan check-raised to 335,000, and Morgan slid out a stack of lavender T100,000 chips constituting a three-bet to 2,000,000. Dwan simply moved all in and Morgan snap-called.

Showdown
Dwan: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}
Morgan: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The fans in the bleachers were on their feet to catch a glimpse of the excitement, but it was all for naught as both players held the same hand and were destined to chop, which is exactly what they did after the {8-Hearts} was put out on the river.
