Chisu Back on the Rise
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
With around 50,000 chips already in the middle on a 5♥5♣6♣10♥, Philip Joyce bet 18,000 from the cutoff and Danut Chisu called on the button.
A 6♠ double-paired the board on the river and Joyce thought for a second before he threw out a bet of 20,000. Chisu called at lightning speed.
Joyce confidently flipped 9♣9♠, but was behind to the K♠10♣ of Chisu, who turned a pair of tens.
