Ford Gets the Gutshot
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Joe Ford just put a short-stacked player at risk with 
preflop from the cutoff. His opponent in the blinds had a little less than 4,000 and held 
, pairing up on the 
flop. Ford needed a seven or runner-runner, and he was able to find the 
on the river to make a winning straight.
Ford got off to a great start a couple of weeks ago at Mid-States Poker Tour Running Aces before fizzling out in the money when he took a couple of rough beats. Perhaps he'll have better luck finishing strong this time.
