A Force to be Reckoned With?
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
James Woods raised to 1,600 from under the gun and was called by Leif Force on his direct left. Action folded to Ryan Roeder, and he defended his big blind.
Woods continued for pot (4,800) on the K♥Q♥8♣ flop and was called in both spots.
Action then checked to Force on the 5♣ turn. He jammed for 18,500 and was called by Roeder, who wasted little time in calling. Woods found himself in a tough spot, saying he would need some time over his decision while lamenting that the board contained two flush draws. He ended up folding and the cards went on their backs.
Leif Force: K♣Q♠Q♣7♣ 
Ryan Roeder: A♥8♥5♠4♠
The J♣ river denied Roeder any chance of taking the low half of the pot. Force improved to a flush and scooped.
