James Wins Three-Way Showdown
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Philip Joyce raised to 30,000 in middle position. Dick Postel called in the cutoff, after which Bobby James defended his big blind.
The 8♦2♥A♦ flop saw the action check to Postel, who bet 45,000. Both James and Joyce called. The 9♣ turn and 2♦ river were then checked down.
James showed 6♦4♦ for a flush, causing Joyce to muck his A♣5♣. Postel's A♥J♣ was no good either as James reclaimed some lost chips.
