Pot-Limit Omaha

Two players in the blinds checked to Matthew Ashton on the button with the board reading {k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, 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 {8-Diamonds} river, and Ashton bet 4,800.

Mosseri tossed in a call, and Ashton showed {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{7-Spades} for fives full. Mosseri shook his head and mucked, and the defending champ is off to a nice start here on Day 1.
