We heard someone cry out, "Please, God, don't let me get unlucky on the river," on a neighboring table and hurried over to find Mike Matusow, hands stretched out skyward in a three-way monster pot on sixth street.
"That gets the reporters rushing over," said David "ODB" Baker, a participant in the hand. "By that he means he's been a dog on every street!"
Matusow had bet on sixth street, with Wendy Freedman and Baker to act behind him. Both called.
On seventh street, Baker bet and Matusow called.
Baker showed 
for an eight low and Matusow obligingly showed 
for a nine low.
"I started Ace-Deuce-Three," said Matusow, "Nice hand."
