Chop Suey

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Nicolas Fierro opened to 125,000 from early position, and the action folded all the way to Scott Schwalich who three-bet to 350,000 from the big blind. Fierro four-bet to 750,000, Schwalich five-bet shoved for nearly 2.5 million, and Fierro snapped it off.

Showdown
Fierro: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Schwalich: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}

The two held the same hand, but Schwalich was freerolling after the flop fell {5-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}. After the {q-Clubs} turned neither player could win however, and the two chopped once the {j-Spades} completed the board.
