Caiaffa Run Over by Ford, Survives with One Big Bet
Level 13
: Limits 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
The action was caught on a flop of K♦8♦7♥, in a pot between Joe Ford, Rafael Caiaffa, and Shaun Deeb. Ford checked from the small blind before Caiffa put out a bet from the big blind. Deeb called in the cutoff, as did Ford.
The turn came the 6♣ and Caiaffa was again the one to bet. This time, Deeb folded, but Ford still stuck around. The two remaining players then checked down the 6♥ river, and Ford showed his K♠Q♣3♣2♠ slowly and reluctantly.
However, his third-nut low and two pair was good enough to scoop, as Caiaffa mucked his cards.
