"You Gotta Know Who Was Gonna Double You!"

It's been a one-man show in the $3k H.O.R.S.E., and the show will carry on. Mike Matusow just doubled up.

Limit Hold'em

Matusow was in the big blind, and he called a raise from Matthew Schreiber. Matusow then check-raised on the {7-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop, earning a call. The {Q-Clubs} hit the queen and Matusow bet again. Schreiber asked how much Matusow had behind, and it was 39,000. He moved all in, and Matusow called off.

Schreiber showed {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for turned top pair, but Matusow had the goods. "That's behind, my friend," he informed Schreiber, rolling over his {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

The river {6-Clubs} didn't hurt "The Mouth," securing the double for the four-time bracelet winner.

"I know Matt was gonna double me! You gotta know who was gonna double you! If I win one more pot, y'all can't win!"

Matusow demonstrated his boxing moves, fighting with the air. "I got the maximum from Matt," he sang. "I got the fuuuuull double-up. Not just three-quarters!"

Matusow then finished his speech: "Make poker fun again, boys!"

If anyone tries to make poker fun again, it's undoubtedly Mike Matusow.
