Fist Bumb Hand

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Daniel Palau raised from the cutoff to 4,000 and Dong Chen three-bet to 11,000. Palau made the call. Both players checked the monotone flop of 2510.

The turn A also checked through.

On the river 6 was where the action began. Palau bet 20,000, Chen reraised to 40,000, Palau min clicked again for 80,000 and Chen bet again for 105,000, Palau made the call.

The players at the table were shocked to see a chopped pot with no spades in either player's hand.

Nick Palma announced, "I think I just lost some brain cells" and "Did you guys put that through the solver?"

Palau had 910 and Chen held AK the two players fist bumped each other and laughed over their bluff attempts and then continued discussing strategy about how to do it better next time.
