Bax Chipping Up

Mickey Doft

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Cliff "JohnnyBax" Josephy finished in seventh place in the 2010 North American Poker Tour Mohegan Sun for $85,000 and is off to a nice start this year.

We caught up with the action on a board of {A-Hearts} {6-Spades} {4-Spades} {J-Spades} and a player had checked to Josephy. He fired 1,300, receiving a call from his opponent. The {J-Clubs} landed on the river and once again action was checked to Josephy. After a few moments, "Bax" fired a bet of 3,000. His opponent quickly called, but saw the bad news when Josephy tabled {7-Spades} {5-Spades} for a flush, increasing his stack to about 37,000 in the process.
