Joshi's Ace is Best
Level 3
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with roughly 20,000 in the pot and the board showing 10♦4♣A♥.
Neel Joshi in the big blind checked to Iuri Ribeiro from under the gun, and he bet out 10,000. He was called by both Eric Afriat in middle position, and Joshi.
All three players then checked to showdown after the 2♥ on the turn and 2♠ on the river. Joshi tabled A♣5♦ and his pair of aces was good to take the pot, as Ribeiro mucked, and Afriat showed the 10♣ before tossing his hand in the muck.
