Joshi Gets a Gift
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Sachin Joshi opened to 3,000 from under the gun before Boris Angelov three-bet to 7,500 from the cutoff. Mohammed Lasheb called from the small blind and Joshi also stuck around.
On the 9?8?6? flop, Lasheb checked before Joshi led out for 6,000. Both opponents called.
On the K? turn, Lasheb ripped in his big stack and then Joshi called off his stack of 28,500. Angelov folded.
Sachin Joshi: 8?8? 
Mohammed Lasheb: Q?10?
Joshi was the huge favorite with his set of eights, while Lasheb was drawing to his double-gutter. The 2? river gave Joshi the checkmark to double up.
Lasheb was left with around 60,000 after the hand, but that quickly evaporated as he has since been eliminated.
