Joyce Doubles Through Murray
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Toby Joyce was already all in on the button against Liam Murray, who was in early position, on a flop of 6♣4♣9♦ and cards were turned face up.
Toby Joyce: K♥K♣
Liam Murray: 9♣8♣
It was a near coin flip for Joyce, who would need to fade flush and pair outs to double up and keep his Main Event going.
The K♠ turn provided some relief as it improved Joyce to a set, and the A♥ river changed nothing to award Joyce the double up.
