Split Pot and a Shaking Head
Nivel 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Abdulgamid Gadzhiev limped in from under the gun, but Guillermo Gordo, sitting in the hijack, raised it to 5,000. David Karsenty on the button called, and Gadzhiev followed suit.
The flop came 8♣9♣9♥, and both Gadzhiev and Gordo checked it over to Karsenty, who bet 5,500. Gadzhiev responded by shoving, and Gordo quickly called, leaving the decision with Karsenty. Clearly unhappy with the situation, Karsenty took his time before ultimately folding.
At showdown, Gadzhiev revealed Q♦10♦, and Gordo showed Q♥10♥. With both players holding the same hand, it was destined to be a split pot unless something wild happened. The K♦ on the turn confirmed it, and the chips were divided, leaving Karsenty shaking his head in frustration.
