Matz Delivers a Bad Beat to Foe
Level 4
: 100/200, 0 ante
A board read 
and two players put all of their chips into the middle. The first held an almost unbeatable hand in their quad kings as they held two in their hand.
James Matz flipped over the most unlikely hand after seeing the four cowboys when he showed his rivered quad aces. He took down the pot from his opponent in what is the biggest bad beat of the tournament thus far in this early day.

Matz Drops Another
Level 5
: 150/300, 0 ante
The board read 
and Faisal Siddiqui had his remaining 14,000 in the middle. James Matz called and the two had their hands face up.
Siddiqui showed 
for two pair with a low, but it was not good on either end as Matz had 
for a wheel, taking down both pots as he sent Siddiqui out the door.

Matz Takes the Lead, Lytle Takes an Exit
Level 6
: 200/400, 0 ante
Marc Matz catapulted up to the top through multiple people, but the heaviest share of his chips came from the former chipleader John Lytle.
Matz is the first player to break the six-figure chip mark and shows no sign of slowing down.
