Matusow Sends Urpsis to the Rail

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Mike Matusow

Mike Matusow: {q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} / {5-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{2-Spades}{6-Hearts}
John Urpsis: {x-}{x-} / {6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} / {x-}

After arriving at the table on fifth street, John Urpsis led out with a pair of sixes showing on his board. Mike Matusow raised and Urpsis pushed in a three-bet. Matusow four-bet and that was enough to put Urpsis all in. Matusow tabled a wheel for a straight and the nut low and it only got better from there.

Sixth street improved his hand to a six-high straight and the river gave him a flush. Urpsis, meanwhile, was unable to improve on his hand and was eliminated shortly after the break.

"These are the hands I play, OK. Six-high straight, a wheel, and a flush. That's it," Matusow explained to the table. And then in true Matusow fashion, the needle came shortly after. "What did he have anyway?"

"A pair of sixes and a seven low draw," responded one player at the table.

"He only had a pair of sixes and he wanted to put nineteen bets in?" Matusow exaggerated.
