Ward Leads With Success
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
John Ward had open-raised preflop from early position and received a call from Alan Gilmore in the hijack. Cutoff Nicolas Sievers then put in a squeeze to 5,700 chips, which only Ward called.
On the 5♦9♦7♦ flop, it was Ward who bet first, for a sizing of 5,200. Sievers did not give the situation much thought as he quickly added his cards to the muck and surrendered the pot.
