Davidson Matthew Sucks Out and Avoids Elimination

A group of media reps surrounded one table that featured a big hand with Davidson Matthew, Alex Jacob, and David "The Dragon" Pham. On a flop of {Q-Spades}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}, Jacob and Pham both checked. Matthew moved all in for 18.2K and stood up. Jacob called and Matthew whirled around and quietly muttered, "Tough luck." The Dragon peeked at his cards and eventually mucked. Jacob tabled {K-Spades}{K-Clubs} while Matthew flipped over {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. He gahered his things together ready to leave. The {10-Hearts} fell on the turn and the {10-Diamonds} spiked on the river to give Matthew runner-runner trips. A disgusted Jacob shook his head as the dealer shoved a pot worth close to 40K to Matthew.
