Jazz Mathers had that awful roller coaster of emotions that comes with first happily looking down at and then looking up and seeing the dreaded of an opponent. On this occasion it was Paul O'Brien with the pocket rockets.
When the chips first went in the middle, the stacks looked pretty even and when the dealer spread out a board, it was time to count down the stacks and see if Mathers was elimianted.
O'Brien's stack was counted first. He had 92,200.
Mathers' was counted next and he had... 92,200.
With that, O'Brien is one of the larger stacks in the room, while Mathers wont be making back-to-back final tables.
