Matusow Turns a Wheel and Doubles Up

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Mike Matusow

Mike Matusow has doubled to 11,350 after scooping both the high and low of a hand that went down moments ago.

Matusow was all-in and at risk of elimination on a {J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop, where he held {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} to the {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} fo his opponent. The {A-Hearts} turn improved Matusow's opponent to a set of aces, but also Matusow to the wheel straight. Matusow needed to avoid the board pair or an ace in order to win both parts of the pot, and he did just that as the river was the {K-Diamonds}.

"It's such a crazy game, " said Matusow as he stacked his new chips.
