Matusow Sends Opponent Out the Door
Level 13
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Big O
Mike Matusow limped from late position and the button, small blind and big blind all did the same to see a 6♠3♠5♠.
The blinds both checked to Matusow who tossed out a bet of 4,000. The player on the button tossed out a raise to 10,000 and both of the blinds folded before Matusow made the call leading to a 4♦ turn card.
Matusow checked to the button who bet 18,000. Matusow wasted little time in check-raising all in and the button player called off for slightly less, putting himself at risk and headed to a runout.
Button: K♣K♠Q♠7♦Xx
Mike Matusow: A♠10♠10♥6♣3♣
It's rare in Big O, but Matusow's opponent was drawing dead headed to the river which came the 5♣ to officially secure the pot for Matusow and send his opponent to the rail.
