Mattioda the First Over a Million
Level 20
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
A short-stacked Joe Huang shoved all in for 118,000 from the under-the-gun position and Paul Mattioda called from middle position. The rest of the field folded and it was off to the races.
Huang: 
Mattioda: 
Huang was the one at risk and in need of improvement, but he didn't do it on the 
flop. The 
turn improved Mattioda to a full house, and that left Huang drawing dead. The meaningless 
was put out on the river for good measure, and then Huang made his way to the payout desk in 30th place for $2,587.
