Bernard Escapes With a Split Pot
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Joey Weissman raised to 30,000 and Diane Walker called, as did Gareth Fourie. Richard Barnard got his last 75,000 into the middle and Weissman then reraised to 130,000. Walker folded, but Fourie stuck around to the 4?4?3? flop.
Weissman opted to check and he folded when Fourie bet 300,000.
Richard Barnard: A?6? 
Gareth Fourie: A?Q?
The 3? turn and 4? river gave both players the identically strong hand and Barnard chipped up with a split pot.
