Cliff Josephy is better known in the poker world as "JohnnyBax" - but after a recent hand we may as well call him "JohnnyJax."

Josephy tangled with an all-in player who held {10-}{10-}, and the two-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner had the better pair with {J-}{j-}. The final board ran out {9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{9-Hearts} to keep the fishhooks out in front and Josephy knocked a player out early on Day 1a to build a big stack to wield during these first few levels.
