No brainer, its a chop. deceptive at first glance because they both paired thier kicker but the board always plays and they both share the 7 kicker on the board.

nice pot too

How many heads at the table?, any callers pre-flop?? was this a heads up hand from the start?? I am just trying to figure out how I would have played it if it were me with the 7 kicker.

With that flop, the guy with the 7 probably should have gone all in to kill the pot odds for the guy with the 4 (maybe he did). the guy with the 4 should not have seen the turn or the river with a 4 kicker on a pair of K's with an Ace on the flop. Even more risky with the second ace on the turn.

Just my .02

def chop pot.

the title of the thread though lead me to another question: when it's just a battle of the blinds, everyone else has folded pre-flop, regardless of your cards, do you chop to keep the game moving?

i think it's good etiquette, regardless of my hole cards. i always chop to keep game speed up. you?

There is no doubt... Though I remember back in the day when You'd go to suit to determine the winner.
