Quads for the Mouth

Level 1

Stud-8

Matusow: (X)(X) / {5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{A-Hearts}{5-Spades} / (X)
Johnson: (X)(X) / {Q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{A-Clubs} / (X)

Mike Matusow completed and Marco Johnson raised. Matusow re-raised and Johnson made the call. On fourth, Johnson led out and Matusow called with the action being reversed on fifth where Johnson called a Matusow bet. On sixth, Matusow check-raised Johnson who called and Matusow bet once more on seventh. Johnson made the call but was shown the {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} of Matusow for quads. Johnson couldn’t produce a better high or a low as he mucked his hand and Matusow scooped the pot.
