Matt Matros raised in the cutoff to 54,000, and it folded to Mark Darner in the big blind. He put in a three bet to 140,000, and it was back to Matros, who shoved all in. Darner thought for a minute before calling off the rest of his stack, and he was in bad shape.

Matros: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Darner: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The flop came down {7-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Clubs}, and Matros was well out in front. However, the {j-Clubs} spiked on the turn, and Darner's rail erupted. Darner looked at his rail, and told them to calm down, as the hand was far from over. Matros could catch a king or a ten to win, and sure enough, the {10-Spades} slammed down on the river, giving Matros broadway.

Darner will take home over $56,000 for his efforts, while Matros takes the chip lead, as he's up to 2.4 million.
