Foord vs. Murdoch, Blind vs. Blind
Level 13
: 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Joss Murdoch, who won his seat into this Main Event online, has doubled through Martin Foord after a blind-on-blind confrontation that started slowly.
Caught from the 
flop, Murdoch checked and Foord threw in a single 5,000 chip. Murdoch called, then checked the 
turn. Foord now bet 12,000, and Murdoch swiftly check-raised all in for 50,500. Foord thought for a while, then pushed his stack forward indicating his call.
Foord: 
Murdoch: 
The 
on the river put Foord's two pair in second place, and they effectively swapped start-of-hand stacks.
