Chopping Up Broadway

The flop came down {Q-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {10-Hearts}. Alex Fitzgerald bet 1,700 after one player checked. The player on the button raised to 5,000 and the first player folded. Fitzgerald reraised to 12,000 and the button called.

The turn brought the {K-Clubs} and Fitzgerald bet 12,000. His opponent on the button moved all in and Fitzgerald called. Fitzgerald held {A-Diamonds} {7-Spades} for a Broadway straight. His opponent held {A-Hearts} {5-Hearts} for a Broadway straight as well.

The river was the {8-Clubs} and the two players chopped the pot.

"Amazing you have an ace there, too!" commented Fitzgerald.
