Barber Scoops Matusow
Level 1
: Limits 400/800, 100 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 Or Better
Kyle Miholich raised from the cutoff and on the button Mike Matusow three bet which saw Andrew Barber call in the big blind not seeing that Matusow had three bet. He put in the correct amount and Miholich called behind him.
The flop came out Q♣4♣8♥ and action checked to Matusow who bet and both players called.
Action checked through on the turn 6♠ and the river A♥ saw Barber bet which got Miholich out of the way and Matusow said "let's chop this pot," while tossing in the call.
"We're not chopping," replied Barber who turned over 7♠5♣4♥2♣ for an eight high straight and a seven-five low which was good for both halves as Matusow frustratingly flashed A♦Q♥5♦ before tossing his hand into the muck.
