The table folded to Roy Mathews who completed from the small blind. Then Jon "Apestyles" Van Fleet raised to 31,000 from the big blind. Mathews responded with a reraise to 225,000, and Van Fleet pushed all in over the top. Mathews called with his remaining chips, putting himself all in for 405,000 total.

Mathews showed {A-Spades}
