Kuether and Shak Chop

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

Joseph Kuether opened with a raise from the button before Dan Shak three-bet to 4,000 from the small blind.

Kuether came along to see a {K-Hearts}{A-Spades}{10-Spades} flop fall with Shak continuing for 4,000. Kuether called, and when the {6-Hearts} landed on the turn, he moved all in for 30,000 over Shak's bet of 9,500. Shak made the call and the cards were placed on their backs.

Kuether: {A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Shak: {A-Clubs}{9-Spades}

With Kuether in the lead with his top and bottom pair, the {10-Clubs} on the river would see Shak snatch a chop from his secondary ace.
