Dovzhenko and Andrulis Chop it up
Alex Dovzhenko and Kristjonas Andrulis were just embroiled in a battle of wits over at the far end of room, but after much early promise the hand ended in a split pot.
Dovzhenko opened in the hijack and Andrulis three-bet to 29,000 from the button. Dovzhenko responded by four-betting to 63,000 and Andrulis called.
The duo shared a 
flop, a flop that Dovzhenko led for 75,000 on and Andrulis smooth called. The 
turn saw Dovzhenko revert to checking, but when Andrulis bet the rather small amount of 60,000, Dovzhenko called.
That was the last of the betting action as both players checked the arrival of the 
on the river.
Dovzhenko: 
Andrulis: 
Both players had the same hand and the pot was split.
"All that time for a chop," quipped Sam Grafton, "The blogger has wasted his time writing that down. Nobody will want to read that!"
