Marc Anthony Joseph Improves Stack

Level 1: 100 / 200 ante: 200

Marc Anthony Joseph

Ronald Ashley Lane limped from UTG and when Amit Khaitan made it 1,500 from UTG + 1, two other callers Marc Anthony Joseph and Gleb Dokuchaev also joined in with Lane for four players to see a T♠ T♦ T♥ flop. Action was checked to Khaitan who fired 1,500. Joseph made the call, Dokuchaev got out of the way and Lane three-bet to 3,500. Khaitan gave up while Joseph pushed it to 11,500 and also pushed out Lane to take down the pot.
