Demers Doubles Through Josephy

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Cliff Josephy raised to 18,000 from middle position and Gionni Demers re-raised to 36,000 leaving himself just 6,000 behind. It folded back to Josephy who looked at Demers' stack. "I'm thinking about calling and then shoving the flop" joked Josephy.

That was not the case as Josephy moved all in and Demers threw his last 6,000 into the pot.

Gionni Demers: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Cliff Josephy: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The dealer spread the {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop and Josephy picked up a gutshot straight draw. The turn {j-Diamonds} and river {a-Clubs} improved Demers to aces and jacks and he doubled his stack.
