We found Mike Matusow facing a raise to 15,000 from Erik Seidel before the flop. Matusow made it 45,000, and Seidel came back with a min-reraise to 75,000. Matusow thought for awhile, asking the dealer to pull in the raise before deciding to roll with the five-bet to 115,000. Seidel pushed forward the rack still containing his chips after moving into his new seat, and a heated Matusow was beside himself as he flipped {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}, saying he knew he should have folded. Sure enough, Seidel tabled {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}, which held up on the {q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{6-Hearts} board.

"I knew I should folded," Matusow said. "I knew I should have folded."
