Double Elimination For Matt Matros

After a series of raises preflop, a player was all in preflop for 12,000 and was called by Matt Matros and another player. The flop fell {K-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Matros checked. His opponent put out a bet and Matros announced a raise. His opponent was short stacked at this time and three-bet for 500 more, bringing him all in. Matros made the call and the hands were turned over:

Preflop All In: {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Post flop All In: {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
Matros: {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

Matros' kings were in the lead and stayed that way when the turn and river came {4-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}. Matros was able to send two home and increase his stack by a significant margin.
