Mousa Starts Hot as Grootelaar Forces River Fold

Romani Mousa has had a hot start, sitting with a stack of 229,000 before the first break. He informed PokerNews it was gained from a flopped set versus two pair scenario, and making a straight with ace-jack and getting paid.

In this hand, a pot of 20,000 had developed by the turn on a board of 10♦4♣2♥3♣ in a hand between Mousa, Johannes Grootelaar and Daniele Gugliotta.

Grootelaar slid out a bet of 5,500, Gugliotta called and Mousa folded.

The Q♥ hit on the river, and Gugliotta folded to a further bet of 10,000 from Grootelaar.
