Johanssy Joseph Eliminated by Arash Behnam

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Johanssy Joseph raised on the button, Arash Behnam three-bet from the small blind, and Joseph four-bet.

Behnam called and they saw a flop of {K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Behnam bet out, Joseph raised, and Behnam called. The turn was the {8-Hearts}, and Behnam check-called a bet from Joseph. On the {2-Spades} river, Behnam checked, Joseph went all in for 3,500, and Behnam called.

Joseph had pocket queens, but it was no good against Behnam's {A-Clubs}{K-Spades} for two pair, kings and deuces, with an ace kicker. Joseph was eliminated, and Behnam collected the pot.

"I was pretty sure he had pocket aces," Behnam said after the hand.
