Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Matt Matros

If Matt Matros hadn't established himself as the chip leader yet he's definitely done so now.

Just before break Matros raised to 900 from early position. The player directly to his left moved all in. Action folded to the player in the cutoff who moved all in over the top. Action folded all the way back around to Matros who snap called.

Matros: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Early Position All In: {Q-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Cutoff: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Matros was in a great position to notch two more knock outs when no one improved on the {3-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop. The turn was the {6-Clubs} leaving Matros out front. The river was safe for Matros too when it fell the {6-Diamonds}. After that hand, Matros stacked his chips into the break. He has breached the 70,000 chip mark and looks to have more than anyone else in the room.
