Small, Cautious Pots

Small ball pots are the name of the game today. We can't tell you how many pots have been limped four-, five- or six-ways. With only seven players still at the table, it was another five-way limp on a flop of {2-Spades}

. When the turn fell {k-Clubs}

, small blind Cliff Josephy led out for 60,000. Rifat Palevic was the only caller.

On the river {8-Diamonds}

Josephy fired again, this time for 120,000 chips. That bet produced a fold from Palevic, allowing Josephy to win the pot.
