Galfond Gets Unlucky To Chop
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 0 ante
With a 
board out and 40,000 already in the middle, Phil Galfond had a bet of 27,000 out in front of him from the small blind. His opponent on the button tanked for a few minutes before making the call.
The 
fell on the river, and Galfond took his time before betting 15,000. The button raised to 42,000, Galfond jammed for 75,000 total and the button called. Galfond showed 
for the turned Broadway straight and a Royal Flush draw in hearts, and found his opponent had matched him with his 
for two pair and a club flush draw along with the Broadway draw that came in on the river.
