Chop Saves Goncalves
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Action was followed from the 8?8?K? flop with Shelly Talbot in the small blind and up against Isabella Goncalves in the big blind.
Talbot bet 9,000 on the flop and Goncalves called.
The Q? was turned and Talbot bet 4,000, getting another call from Goncalves.
The 4? river saw Talbot move 8,000 into the pot. Goncalves asked the dealer how many more levels of late registration there were, before moving their entire stack into the middle. Talbot made a snap call and the players flipped their hands.
Isabella Goncalves: 8?2?
Shelly Talbot: 8?J?
Both players had flopped trip eights, and the king and queen on the board played, meaning the pot was chopped.
