Matusow Sliding

The Mouth misses.
The Mouth misses.

Mike Matusow can't seem to find solid ground to stand on here in Niagara Falls.

After one player limped and another on the button made it 1,400 total, Matusow decided to defend his big blind. The limper came along for the ride and they went three-handed to the {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop.

Matusow checked, as did the limper, but when the button made it 3,150, The Mouth check-raised it up to 10,200.

After the limper gave up, the button called all-in for less and the hands were revealed with Matusow holding {10-Spades}{7-Spades} for a pair and a flush draw and his opponent hanging on to the lead with {a-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} for two pair.

The turn came the {q-Hearts} and the river the {2-Clubs} making it a swing and a miss for Matusow, who is now down to 21,000.
