From middle position, Rex Clinkscales opened for 9,000. Aleksei Opalikhin over in the cutoff three-bet to 21,500 and his neighbor November Niner Cliff Josephy cold four-bet to 51,500 from the button.

Both blinds folded and action was back on Clinkscales. He asked how much it was to which Josephy replied "Take your sunglasses off and you can see."

Clinkscales folded but Opalikhin called.

The flop came {K-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Opalikhin lead for 64,000. As the {8-Hearts} hit the turn, Opalikhin shoved. Josephy instantly called for 161,000 total.

Cliff Josephy: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Aleksei Opalikhin: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}

"Ow I'm in good shape!" Josephy said.

The meaningless {A-Hearts} hit the river and Josephy scored the full double.
