In a battle of the blinds, Annette Obrestad, in the small blind tossed out four grey chips for a 4,000 bet. Mike Matusow was essentially all in in the big blind, so he put his remaining chips in the middle and the cards were on their backs.

Obrestad: {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Matusow: {8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}

The flop brought {q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} giving Matusow a gutshot straight draw. "Seven from heaven," said Tony G. The turn, {9-Spades} did nothing for Matusow, and the {10-Clubs} sealed his fate. He has exited, leaving four players left at the table.
