Becker Chops to Stave Off Elimination
Johannes Becker raised from late position and was called by Erik Seidel on the button and Luis Velador in the big blind.
The dealer rolled out the 7♦J♠5♣ flop and both Seidel and Velador called a bet from Becker.
The pot began to grow on the 6♠ turn, when Becker put out another bet when checked to by Velador, but it was Seidel who would raise. Both players called.
The Q♣ hit the river and both Velador and Becker checked to Seidel, who bet. Velador called and Becker committed his remaining chips, which happened to be less than a full bet, creating a small side pot between Seidel and Velador.
Johannes Becker: A♥J♣10♦2♦
Erik Seidel: A♣9♣8♥3♥
Luis Velador: A♠K♥9♦2♠
Seidel would win the high with a nine-high straight and Becker and Velador would chop the low with the same seventy-six.
