Josephy Shoves the River

Level 22 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

The board was down {8-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, and Cliff Josephy bet 275,000 from under the gun. Kunal Patel was in the cutoff and called before the dealer put down the {3-Hearts}.

Josephy was sitting with around 1.6m behind him, and he put Patel to the test by moving all in. Patel had 750,000 and would have to put his tournament life at risk to call. Patel thought through his decision out loud and the two players spoke, exchanging laughter before Patel reluctantly let his hand go into the muck and gave Josephy the win.
