Massive Call from Mathers
Billy “The Croc” Argyros just came over to the media desk to tell us about an interesting hand.
This how Argyros said it went down:
Argyros opened the button to 950. Jazz Mathers, who finished 9th when Argyros won APPT Melbourne, three-bet to 2,100 from the small blind and Argyros called. Apparently the flop was and Matghers led for 2,200. Argyros called and a hit the turn. This time Mathers led for 2,800 and Argyros raised to 6,800 – though he said he meant to make it more. Mathers called and a completed the board.
Mathers checked here and Argyros bet 8,800, with Mathers having around 10,000 behind. Mathers apparently made a very quick snap-call and tabled for ace-high, enough to see Argyros send his for a busted flush into the muck.
It was a remarkable call, especially a snap call, and one which had Argyros scratching his head and even joking that perhaps Mathers saw his cards.
Since this hand, Mathers has seen his stack increase from being very short to over 50,000.
