Joseph Doubles Through Anderson
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 5♠J♣7♣ and roughly 38,000 in the pot.
Ryan Anderson was facing a three-bet all in from Stephen Joseph for his stack of 33,000. Anderson sat deep in the tank, debating his decision, before after nearly two minutes saying "Do you actually have a hand or are you just playing back at me?". Joseph then called the clock on Anderson. Shortly after having the clock called, Anderson made the call to put Joseph at risk.
Stephen Joseph: Q♥Q♣
Ryan Anderson: A♠J♠
Anderson flopped top pair, but Joseph had the best of it with his pocket queens. The board ran out 7♦ on the turn and 8♣ on the river, and Joseph's queens remained best, giving him the double up.
