Abstract
Starting from the leading Odderon solution of the three gluon system in perturbative QCD we introduce, as a first step towards the transition to the non-perturbative region, an infrared cutoff and use the running QCD coupling constant. In our numerical analysis we find that the fixed cut solution with intercept one persists, hinting at a physical Odderon with intercept one and a small t-slope.
