Moss Off to a Good Start

Level 1 : 75/150, 0 ante

The board read {6-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{8-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Matthew Moss had bet 1,300 from the hijack and was called by Robert Irby in the under-the-gun position.

The {j-Diamonds} on the river completed the board and Irby check-called the 3,000 bet of Moss. Moss tabled {q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for the rivered trip jacks to take down the pot.

Immediately following that hand, Moss raised to 400 from under the gun. Steve McCluskey called in the hijack and so did Irby in the big blind.

They all checked through the {7-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{5-Clubs} on the flop to the {3-Spades} on the turn. Irby then check-called the 1,500 bet of Moss and McCluskey folded.

The river completed the board with the {9-Clubs}, Irby now checked and Moss continued with a bet of 2,500 while watching the Columbia-England soccer game on the big screen. Irby considered his options for a while but then folded.
