Joseph Checks Back Wisely
Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
The player in the cutoff opened to 2,000, and the blinds defended—Shawn Roberts in the small and Johanssy Joseph in the big.
The 
flop checked through. On the 
turn, Roberts checked, Joseph fired 3,500, and only Roberts called.
They went heads up to the 
river, which quickly went check-check.
Roberts tabled his 
for a rivered straight.
