What a Treat: Matakis Sends One to the Rail

Level 13 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ian Matakis
Ian Matakis

Minnesota's Ian Matakis raised to 5,500 from early position and two players called before Scott Treat called off his last 2,000 from the button. The lady on the button then three-bet all in for 15,000 and Matakis isolated with a four-bet to 25,000. That drove off the two limpers and all three hands were turned up.

Ian Matakis: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Scott Treat: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Button: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

The {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flop gave both Matakis and the lady on the button a set, while Treat picked up the flush draw. The {4-Diamonds} turn was of no consequence but the {3-Clubs} river was.

Treat made the flush to win the side pot while Matakis made some money by claiming the side.
