More for Matta

We walked up to Nabil Matta's table to see him all in for about 29,000 chips. We were too late to see any of the betting action, but the board showed {K-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {7-Spades} {J-Diamonds}, and there was already about 58,000 in the pot when we joined the hand. Matta's opponent was deep in the tank, and someone eventually called the clock on him. He took another 30-45 seconds to think it over before folding, and Matta picks up that nice pot.

"Come on, show!" pleaded someone at the table. Matta smirked and mucked his cards, but he held both hands up and wiggled four fingers on each to indicate that he had -- or at least wanted his table to believe he had -- pocket fours.

The Lebanese Poker Champion is up to about 89,000 after that pot.
