Jacks For Josephy

Cliff Josephy raised to 2,800 under the gun, middle position called, and the button called as well.

Three ways to the Q♦5♦4♠ and all competitors checked. The turn brought the 7♦ and Josephy checked again. The player in middle position bet 5,000 and the button folded. Josephy made the call. The river was the 4♦, making it so that either player just needed a single diamond to make a flush.

Josephy checked a last time and the player in middle position checked as well.

Shrugging, Josephy turned up J♥J♣ and as his opponent went to fold he said, "Face down, yea... no slow play here."

Middle position faked to turn up a flush, but didn't have the hand to do it. Josephy is now amongst the chip leaders.
