Matusow Left Short After "Biggest Fold Of His Life"
Level 21
: Limits 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Mike Matusow: XxXx/2♠2♦A♥4♣/Xx
Bryn Kenney: XxXx/A♦9♥K♣ - folded fifth street
Eddie Blumenthal: XxXx/5♥4♠7♦8♠/Xx
Mike Matusow brought in and Bryn Kenney completed. Eddie Blumenthal came along and so did Matusow.
Action checked to Blumenthal on fourth street and he bet. Both players called before the action checked to Blumenthal again on fifth street. He bet once more but this time only Matusow made the call.
Matusow then check-called on sixth street as well before he spent two minutes in the tank on seventh after facing another bet.
"This is the sickest fold of my life," Matusow claimed, ultimately throwing his 4♦3♦ face up in the muck.
