Matusow Survives the River to Double
Level 17
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Mike Matusow bet from middle position on a flop of J♥J♣4♦ and was called by Craig Fishman in early position.
The turn came the 5♠ and Matusow bet his last chips. Fishman called to put him at risk.
"One time," Matusow said as he turned over J♦5♦10♦A♦ for a full house. Fishman was on a low draw holding 8♦2♦K♣A♥.
The river came the 10♥ and Fishman missed his low as Matusow gave a fist pump as he doubled up.
