Michael Ross completed with a five showing and Max Pescatori called. Erik Seidel three-bet which brought Mike Matusow along as well. Ross and Pescatori both called. On fourth, the action checked to Ross who tossed in a bet and all three players called.
The action ramped up on fifth as Matusow was the first to throw in a bet. Ross just called and Pescatori check-raised. Seidel thought for a good minute before getting out of the way. Matusow three-bet, Ross four-bet, and Pescatori capped the action, with both players calling.
On sixth, Matusow picked up the betting lead but slowed down. He checked to Ross who threw in a bet and Pescatori raised. Matusow called only to have Ross three-bet and Pescatori four-bet. Matusow called again and Ross capped the action with both players calling.
With nearly 80,000 chips in the pot already, Matusow checked on seventh. Ross bet and Pescatori raised. Matusow shook his head as his cards went to the muck. With the action heads-up now, Ross just called and tabled for a seven low. Pescatori showed for a flush and the two chopped the pot.
"I have a made eight and open-ended straight draw," Matusow noted, referring to in the hole. "You somehow put in twelve thousand twice with just a seven low," Matusow turned his banter toward Ross.
