Ross Rues River After Hockey Hijinks

Level 8 : 250/500, 75 ante

Mike Ross defended his big blind to an open to 1,200 from Jordan Young on the button.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{q-Spades}{3-Spades} and Ross check-called a bet of 1,500. The turn was the {5-Spades}. Ross checked.

"Patrick Roy," said Young, betting 3,300 to mimic two-time Stanley Cup winner Roy's jersey number. Ross called.

The river was the {a-Spades} and Ross checked for a third time.

"Wayne Gretzky," said Young, betting 9,900 in homage to 'The Great One'

Ross checked his cards. "That ace lost me a lot of money," he said, folding a {q-} face up.

"That river cost me a lot of money!" said Young in response.
