Kashani Reclaims Top Spot After Picking Off Joyce's Bluff
Level 34
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Philip Joyce made it 600,000 on the button and Christopher Brammer called from the small blind with 6♦6♣. Arian Kashani also called from the big blind.
The trio saw a flop of 8♠2♣8♣, which checked around to the 10♦ turn, which also went check-check.
A J♠ dropped on the river where Brammer checked, and Kashani fired 1,100,000. Joyce then put in a raise of 2,800,000, which got a quick fold out of Brammer. Kashani thought it over for quite some time, but finally decided to make the call.
Joyce showed K♠9♦ for a bluff, and Kashani took it down with J♥3♥ after he rivered a pair of jacks.
