Joyce Goes for It Early
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Toby Joyce opened in middle position to 20,000 before the action folded all the way to Guo Liang Wei in the big blind who defended.
The 9♠5♦Q♥ flop landed and the action checked to Joyce who continued for 17,000. Wei Called.
The K♦ hit the turn and it was checked over to Joyce again. He sat in the tank for a moment and then sized up with a bet of 70,000.
Wei called again and the 7♥ river hit the felt and it was checked to Joyce for the last time. After about a full minute in the tank he emptied the clip and moved all in.
Wei thought it over for a bit but eventually he found a fold and Joyce scooped to gain some serious momentum to start the day.
