Song Pays Off Moshe

Anthony Thompson

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action folded around to four-time WSOP bracelet winner Asi Moshe who raised to 5,000 from the button and WSOP bracelet winner Stephen Song defended his big blind, bringing about the flop.

Song check-called Moshe's 7,500 continuation bet and then did the same for 20,500 after the turn.

The completed the board on the river and Song check-called Moshe once again, this time for a healthy 59,500.

Moshe quickly rolled the nuts and collected the pot after Song mucked his hand facedown.
