Stocz Involved in Two

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Eric Stocz
Eric Stocz

From middle position, former NFL player Eric Stocz raised to 2,000. The only caller he found was from the player in the big blind and the flop came down {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. After the big blind checked, Stocz bet 3,000. His opponent folded and Stocz won the pot.

On the next hand, Stocz limped in from early position and action folded to Jeremy Saunders in the cutoff seat. He raised to 2,300 and play folded back to Stocz. "You don't want none of this, man," commented Stocz with a smile. "Show if I fold?" he asked.

Saunders obliged and showed the {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts} after Stocz folded the {J-Spades}{10-Spades} face up. "Nice position," commented Stocz. "And I limped from early position, pretty ballsy on your part."
