Matthew Moss Bubbles Day 1a of the EPT National High Roller
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Matthew Moss open-shoved 104,000 from middle position and Rodney Lawrence instantly called from the big blind. With hand-for-hand in play, it took a while before the cards were opened up and Moss found himself in a race for his tournament life.
Matthew Moss: 
Rodney Lawrence: 
The 
flop put Lawrence in a commanding lead, leaving Moss only with running cards to survive. The 
on the turn opened up one of the backdoors, but the glimmer of hope for the British professional faded on the 
river.
With Moss' elimination, the remaining 152 players all made the money and will bag for Day 2.
