Matusow Hits Gin on Seventh Street

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 29

Mike Matusow: 3♥A♦/2♣K♣7♥5♥/4♦
Michael Estes: Q♦A♠/K♠5♦10♣5♣/10♦

Michael Estes completed and received a call from Mike Matusow. Estes then bet fourth and fifth streets with Matusow calling each time.

On sixth street Estes bet again and Matusow raised all in for just slightly more. Estes made the call.

"I only have a pair of fives" Estes said.

Matusow had a low but no made high hand. Estes then made two pair, tens and fives on seventh, meaning Matusow could only hit a four to scoop the pot. He received exactly what he needed when his last card came the 4♦, giving him the wheel straight and nut low to secure a second major double up, passing the one million mark in the process.

Chris George: J♥J♠3♠/8♠8♦3♣Q♦
Kao Saechao: XxXx/6♠7♥J♣ - folded on fifth street

Kao Saechao completed with a six and Chris George raised it to two bets. Mike Matusow raised on top for his last 190,000 and received a call from both players.

George bet fourth and was called by Saechao. He bet again on fifth and this time got Saechao to fold, leaving him heads-up with Matusow.

Matusow was behind with nines against jacks and eights but spiked a queen for a better two pair to preserve his tournament life.
