Level 2
![Matthew Ashton has a nice early stack with which to defend his title.](https://s.pnimg.net/dvxqaXjMcpl9Z_WsabIt-tQwtZbBo3NvzephmYLfwZw/pr:reporting-leading-desktop/aHR0cHM6Ly9wbmlt/Zy5uZXQvbHJlcC8x/ODU5LzQwL3hlNGNj/OWVlNTFiLmpwZw.webp)
Pot-Limit Omaha
Two players in the blinds checked to Matthew Ashton on the button with the board reading , and he bet 1,300. Sergii Baranov made the call, but Abe Mosseri wanted to play for more: 6,300. Ashton made the call, and Baranov ducked out of the way. Mosseri slowed down with a check on the
river, and Ashton bet 4,800.
Mosseri tossed in a call, and Ashton showed for fives full. Mosseri shook his head and mucked, and the defending champ is off to a nice start here on Day 1.
