Matusow and Townsend Nearly, But Not Quite, Lock Horns

Mike Matusow is back down to 175,000 after conceding a curious hand to Brian Townsend.

Townsend checked the {2-Clubs} {7-Spades} {4-Hearts} flop and Matusow bet 21,000. Townsend asked Matusow how much he had left -- around 175,000 -- and then dwelled up for some time, stroking his remaining towers of chips in a worryingly phallic manner, after which he raised to 121,000.

Now it was Matusow's turn to try to assess how much Townsend has behind. They seem to be about even. Matusow dwells up, perhaps the longest time he has spent not talking since the beginning of the tournament. Then he folds.
