Aldemir Survives with a Chop
Niveau 17
: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs opened to 225,000 from under the gun and was called by Talal Shakerchi on his left. Koray Aldemir moved all in for his last 190,000 from the big blind.
The flop came 
and Ponakovs led out with a bet of 125,000. Shakerchi raised to 350,000 and Ponakovs quickly folded.
Koray Aldemir: 
Talal Shakerchi: 
Both players had the same hand and it was going to result in a chopped pot. The 
and 
were insignificant in the outcome as Aldemir managed to survive thus far.
"What would you prefer to see?" Mikita Badziakouski inquired from the other table. "Ace-jack or nine-eight (on the flop)?"
"Nine-eight," Aldemir responded, hoping for a double-up with his stack size.
