That Kind of Day For Josephson
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Joshua Remitio raised to 24,000 in middle position and Roni Hakim called in the hijack. Gregory Josephson also came along in the small blind, but Brian Battistone moved all in for 294,000 in the big blind. Remitio and Hakim both folded.
"Only because I'm tired of this. Every hand I play these guys have aces and kings," Josephson said as he called.
Brian Battistone: A♥10♦ 
Gregory Josephson: A♠K♦
Josephson had Battistone dominated, but the A♦10♥3♣ flop gave Battistone two pair and the lead. The board ran out 9♦9♣ and Battistone doubled up, leaving Josephson nursing a short stack.
