JohnnyBax Takes Down a Nice Pot

Cliff "JohnnyBax" Josephy made it 7,000 to go from under the gun and was called by a single opponent. The flop came {A-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Josephy led out with an 8,000 bet; his opponent called.

The turn brought the {J-Spades} and both players checked. Fireworks ensued when the {10-Spades} fell on the river; Josephy fired out a 25,000 bet and his opponent made the call.

Both players went runner-runner to hit their hands, but Josephy's hand was a bit stronger, as he revealed the {5-Spades}{4-Spades} for a flush; his opponent showed {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for two pair, before mucking his cards.

After the hand, Josephy stacked up 227,000 in chips.
