We caught the action on the turn on a board of {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{6-Clubs}

where the player in big blind had led out with a bet of 300 and Mike Matusow made the call from the cutoff.

The river fell the {4-Clubs}

{4-Clubs}

and the big blind checked before Matusow moved all in for 2,025, covering his opponent, who made the call. The big blind tabled {J-?}

{J-?}

{9-?}

for flopped top two pair, but Matusow showed {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

for the flopped nut straight to double up and eliminate his opponent.

Matusow is now up to 6,500 chips.
