Moshe Looking For a Repeat of His Previous Cash

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

If you search for information about Asi Moshe, you will discover that his one and only major live tournament cash came in 2013 at the World Series of Poker. You see, Moshe finished fifth in Event #60 that year, the event won by Loni Harwood. That result banked Moshe $141,124.

Moshe currently has 440,000 chips available and is doing his chances of a repeat performance of 2013 no harm at all.

He added a few chips to his stack when Timothy West raised to 9,000 in late position and Moshe three-bet to 24,500 from the small blind.

"You've not raised like that all day. Are you doing it because you know I'm a nit?" said West and he open-folded {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

"It was not light," said Moshe about his three-bet.

Tushnet Jams on Pham

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

David Pham raised to 7,000 from the hijack seat only to see Joel Tushnet three-bet all-in from the next seat along. Pham counted out the required chips and discovered that calling and being wrong would result in him being left with only 20,000 chips. After almost two minutes, Pham folded and showed the {A-Hearts}.

Moshe Takes Main + Huge Side Pot

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Asi Moshe
Asi Moshe

Asi Moshe raised to 6,000 from early position and a player called from late position. Zo Karim also made the call from the big blind. The flop was {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and both Karim and Moshe checked. Their opponent moved all in for 46,000 and Karim quickly made the call. Moshe thought for a moment and then called as well.

The turn was the {3-Clubs} and Karim quickly moved all in and was met with a snap-call from Moshe. Moshe tabled {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the nuts and Karim's {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} was drawing dead. Their opponent's {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} still had outs, but the {4-Hearts} completed the board and Karim took a big hit, while the all-in player was eliminated.

Moshe Wins One From Schmid

Level 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Mark Schmid was first to act in late position and he raised to 6,500. Asi Moshe called from the next seat along and once the cutoff, button and blinds folded, the dealer put the {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} onto the flop.

Often on these types of boards it is the first bet that wins the pot. Schmid neglected to bet, but Moshe wasted no time in making it 6,500 to play. No sooner had Moshe's chips hit the felt, Schmid's cards landed in the muck.
