Nick Matthews= 100K Man

Jason Green opened the pot for 18,000 and Nick Matthews moved all in for 48,000.

"Let's gamble!" said Green as he made the call and turned over {J-Diamonds}{10-Spades} to Matthews' {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}.

The flop was {A-Spades}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, pairing Green's ten, but the turn was the {Q-Clubs}, giving the lead back to Matthews. The river was the {8-Hearts} and Matthews took down the pot, increasing his stack to 100,000.
