Joyce Gets Three Streets From Chouity
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Nicolas Chouity opened to 25,000 under the gun, and was met with a three-bet to 66,000 by Philip Joyce in the cutoff. Action folded back to Chouity, who called.
On the K♥K♣2♦ flop, Chouity check-called versus a bet of 30,000 from Joyce.
The 4♦ turn followed the same pattern, this time in respect of a bet of 65,000 from Joyce.
The 3♥ river completed the board, and Chouity checked for a third time. Joyce used a time bank to ponder the spot, and fired out a bet of 110,000.
Chouity used a time bank considering his options, but ultimately made the call. He was shown the bad news when Joyce revealed Q♥Q♠ for two pair, kings and queens, forcing Chouity to muck.
