The flop came 
and Samuels check-called a bet of 3,500 from Matros. On the 
turn Samuels checked again and Matros sized up to 9,500, which was called.
The 
completed the board and Samuels checked a third time. Matros took a moment before moving all-in for 20,718 and without much thought, Samuels called.
Matros showed 
for the bluff with jack-high while Samuels scooped the large pot with 
for top-pair. Matros was eliminated but used his rebuy to get back in the action.
