Khordbin Busts Joyce with Cowboys
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Toby Joyce opened to 100,000 from early position and action folded around to Hadi Khordbin in the small blind, who moved all in. It was quickly made apparent that Khordbin did not realize Joyce had opened and that he thought he only had Shuang Luo in the big blind behind him, who was short-stacked. Luo folded and Joyce called off with his stack of approximately 1,700,000, putting himself at risk.
Toby Joyce: A♣8♣
Hadi Khordbin: K♣K♥
Despite an ace being in the window Joyce was drawing very thin on the A♠K♠J♥ flop against Khordbin's middle set. He did pick up some outs on the A♦ turn but the 6♥ river was a blank and Joyce was sent to the rail while Khordbin was shipped a massive pot.
