Matros Takes From Both

Matt Matros raised on the button to 65,000, and Mark Radoja called in the big blind. The flop came down {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}, and Radoja fired out 140,000. Matros called, and the turn was the {9-Diamonds}. This time, Radoja checked, and Matros bet this time, 260,000. Radoja folded his hand, and Matros took the pot.

On the next hand, Matros raised to 75,000, and Ramey Shaio defended his big blind. The flop came {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, and Matros check called a bet of 65,000. The {k-Clubs} hit the turn, and Matros led out this time for 140,000. Shaio tanked for a couple minutes before he made the call. The {q-Diamonds} fell on the river, and Matros fired out for 175,000. Shaio tanked again, this time for about three minutes before folding his hand.
