Moss Playing Safe

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Ryan Moss limped from early position along with the cutoff and the small blind. The big blind checked.

A flop reading {4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} was dealt. The blinds checked. Ross bet 85,000. The cutoff called. The blinds gave up their hands.

The turn brought the {3-Spades} and was checked around to the {q-Hearts} river. Again, both players checked. Moss showed {k-Spades}{j-Spades} and his opponent sent his hand to the muck.
