Ladies for the Ladies
I arrived to find Sandra Henriksen and Siema Chedoe involved in a preflop showdown. The dealer insisted on not only counting the stacks but also bringing in the pot, despite the fact that the most likely outcome was a chop; this annoyed the ladies enough to call the floor over, although this didn’t achieve very much except waste a bit more time. Finally, the board was dealt.
Henriksen: :::Qc :::Qh
Chedoe: :::Qd :::Qs
Board: :::2h :::2c :::Tc :::Jc :::8h
There was a bit of fun with the three clubs by the turn, but the river blanked out and the pot was indeed chopped with both ladies living to see another hand. The dealer was actually remarkably swift at dividing the pot back up.
