No Chop for Josephy

Level 1 : 75/150, 0 ante

Cliff Josephy

Cliff Josephy raised to 400 from middle position and a player in late position called. Joe Cheong called from the cutoff and Claudio Baptista re-raised to 1,500 from the button. Josephy and Cheong called and they went three handed to the {j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop.

It checked to Baptista who bet 700 and Josephy check-raised to 2,000. Cheong quickly folded, Baptista called and the turn was the {j-Diamonds}. Both players checked and the {4-Clubs} completed the board. Josephy led out with a tiny bet of 150 and Baptista chuckled and tossed in the call.

"Chop it up" said Josephy turning over {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} but there would be no chop as Baptista showed {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} to take the pot.
