Mo' Money
Level 3
: 75/150, 0 ante
We caught up with young pro Maurice "Mo" Hawkins recently after noticing him drag a pot to eliminate a short-stacked player.
Hawkins - who represented his generation in a clash of old-school versus new this summer at the World Series of Poker - was a bit below the starting stack before the win, so he is now back to just above even early on this first day of play.
According to Hawkins, he played the 
and connected perfectly with the 
board by the turn. After making his straight, Hawkins snapped off the shorty's 4,000 all-in wager (the man held 
), and a decent pot was pushed his way.
