Pocket Rockets No Good Against a Set
Joe Ebanks raised to 12,000 under the gun only to have Bassel Moussa three-bet to 30,000. Lee Markholt decided to make a call from the small blind, while Ebanks called behind. Action checked around to Moussa on the 
flop and he fired out a respectable 72,000. Markholt made a quick folded, Ebanks moved all in, and Moussa quickly called off his last 80,000.
Moussa: 
Ebanks: 
Moussa no doubt liked his pocket rockets preflop, but he was none too happy to see the top set of Ebanks. Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped Moussa and he was eliminated from the tournament.
