Matusow Doubles Off Engel
Level 15
Seven Card Stud
Mike Matusow: XxXx/K♠5♦A♠6♣/Xx
Ari Engel: XxXx/10♠8♦2♦A♣/Xx
Mike Matusow and Ari Engel were heads-up on fourth street where Matusow bet and Engel called.
Matusow bet again on fifth, leaving just 6,000 behind, and Engel tanked for a moment before calling. Matusow then moved all in dark heading to sixth.
Engel called and turned over 3♥3♦. Matusow had J♠6♠ for a pair of sixes and a flush draw. He caught the flush with the 4♠ river and Engel was already drawing dead before showing his 7♥.
"I didn't realize I paired the six," Matusow said as he collected the pot.
