Joyce Jumps Into Lead

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Jeff Latka raised from the cutoff position and Toby Joyce made it 40,500 to go. Latka made the call and checked on the {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop. Latka led out for a bet and Joyce immediately went all in. Joyce snap called and the players turned over their hands:

Joyce: {8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Latka: {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

The turn was the {J-Hearts} which improved Joyce to a flush and left Latka drawing dead as Joyce doubled into the chip lead.
