Ford Gets Three Quarters
Level 2
: Limits 600/1,200, 0 ante
Jon Shoreman raised in middle potision and got no less than four callers to the 8♠Q♠A♣ flop. It checked to Clyde Gaskins in the hijack, who bet out. Joe Ford then raised from the cutoff, folding out Gregory Holt and Jason Papastavrou in the blinds.
Shoreman tossed in a call, however, as did Gaskins. The 10♣ turn was checked by the trio before Shoreman bet on the 6♦ river. Both opponents called to showdown.
Shoreman tabled 10♥6♠3♥2♦ for the nut low, which Gaskins also had with his Q♣5♥3♣2♣. Ford took down the high half of the pot with A♥8♥7♥5♠ for two pair, seeing him chip up further.
