James Cheung: XxXx/8♥10♦9♠
Gregory Josephson: XxXx/7♠8♠3♥ - folded on fifth street
James Cheung completed, and Gregory Josephson called. Josephson raised Cheung's bet on fourth street, but quickly mucked his cards when Cheung led out again on fifth street.
James Cheung: K♦10♣6♦/10♠8♠K♣6♠
Gregory Josephson: 10♥10♦5♠/A♦3♥3♠7♠
One hand later, Cheung completed again. This time, Josephson raised, and Cheung called in response. Josephson fired bets on fourth, fifth and sixth street, with Cheung calling three times.
Josephson then checked on seventh street, and Cheung checked behind after some thought. Josephson revealed tens and threes, but Cheung had kings and tens for a higher two pair to rake in yet another pot.
