Matros Matters

After a series of raises short-stack David Chiu was all-in against two opponents. Michele Limongi and Matt Matros both were looking to give Chiu the knock-out blow as well as add a decent amount to their stack.

A flop of {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} graced the felt and it was Limongi who came out betting. Matros quickly made the call and it was off to the turn for more action.

A {3-Hearts} caused an explosion of chips to enter the middle after a series of bets put Limongi all-in. Cards were then turned.

David Chiu: {K-}{J-}
Michele Limongi: {J-}{J-}
Matt Matros: {K-}{K-}

Chiu was drawing dead going to the river and Limongi had one card in the deck that could save him, the last remaining jack. He had no such luck as the {8-Clubs} hit for the river and Matros added to his growing mountain.
