: 150/300, 0 ante
We came on this one after the river had been dealt, with the board showing 
, Dario Alioto tabling 
, and his opponent 
. Alioto was claiming the low half with his ace-deuce, and his opponent the high with the jack-high straight.
The real news here is not the chopped pot, though, but that Alioto is sitting with about 20,000 at present, off to one of the better starts in the room this afternoon.
