Chop It Up

Andy Black, with a string of brown beads dangling from his neck, limped on the button behind two other players. Both blinds joined the pot for a flop of {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}{6-Spades}. One player bet 150 and Black was the only caller. The turn came {5-Diamonds} and Black again called a bet, this time of 200. When his opponent checked the {6-Diamonds} river, Black quickly fired out 300. His opponent called just as quickly. Black flipped over the {A-Spades}; his opponent showed the {A-Diamonds}. Black then revealed the {2-Spades}; his opponent opened the {7-Clubs}. Black grinned mischievously as the dealer declared a chopped pot and pushed Black's share of the pot to him.
