, Jeremy Joseph bet 250,000 from late position into his lone opponent, Gert Andersen who was on the button. Andersen called and the {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

hit the turn. Joseph then check-called a bet of 500,000 from Andersen.

The river fell the {8-Spades}

and Joseph check-called Andersen's bet again, this time for 1,000,000. Andersen showed {6-Clubs}
