Two Chops and a Small Profit At The Start
Erik Seidel raised from under the gun and Johannes Becker defended the big blind. On a Q♥3♣2♣ flop, Becker check-called and they checked the 6♠ turn. Becker bet the J♣ river and Seidel reluctantly called with his A♣K♥8♠5♦ to chop against Becker's A♠A♦8♥3♠.
Ben Lamb then three-bet an open raise by Luis Velador, who came along. Velador check-called bets on the K♦10♥6♣ flop and 7♦ turn. They checked the 4♠ river and the [¢Ah3h3c2d] of Velador earned the low, Lamb took the high with the A♠K♠Q♦4♥.
Velador was visibly happy about the chop and said so. "I am happy with half the pot ... against Ben, I take a quarter also," he joked.
Lamb raised the next hand for Velador to defend the big blind and then check-fold a Q♣9♠4♥ flop.
