Mosseri Robusto To Busto

Abe Mosseri was one of our early chip leaders as he nearly doubled his stack very early on in the day. Clearly that wasn't enough though because after losses in two big pots he has managed to go busto very soon after the start of the third level. This following hand is the one that crippled him.

An under the gun player raised to 600 and three players called including Mosseri. The button player then raised it up to 3,000 and the under the gun player and Mosseri called.

The flop came down {4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and all three players checked. The turn came {3-Clubs} the under the gun player bet 3,700, Mosseri called, and the button folded.

The river came the {2-Spades} and the under the gun player went all in for 11,450. Mosseri SNAP called and was disgusted when he saw the {2-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} of his opponent for a rivered full house. Mosseri splashed the pot with his call, mucked his hand, and cursed under his breath for a while.

It must've been only one or two hands later, but when we went back on the floor, Mosseri's seat was empty and he has clearly hit the rail. A tough beat for him as he probably he was sitting pretty with that early double stack.
