Matusow Calls Watson With a Pair of Threes

Level 13 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

"I'm going to be going on a rush very soon," said Mike Matusow, "I'm gonna double up through some big stack." He raised from the button, and Mike Watson called in the small blind. The pair both drew two, Watson bet, and Matusow called.

They both drew one and then checked. They both drew one on the end, and Watson bet.

"This is going to be either the best or the worst call of my life," said Matusow, "And if it's right, then all you suckers are playing for second."

Matusow eventually called.

Watson showed {9-}{8-}{5-}{3-}{2-}, and that was good enough to take down the pot.

"I'm not going to lie," said Matusow. "I called with a pair of threes."
