Marcus Obser Doubles Through Alex Outhred

Alex Outhred moves all in, and Marcus Obser calls all in from the cutoff. (Humberto Brenes thinks for a while before folding, causing Mike Matusow to make additional comments about how slow Brenes has been acting on his hand.)

Outhred shows {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, and Obser shows {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. Obser will need his hand to hold up to stay alive.

The board comes {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}, and Obser takes the pot with his pocket queens, increasing his stack to 283,000. Outhred drops down to 77,000.

Is Humberto Brenes Too Slow to Act? Mike Matusow Thinks So

When the action folds around to Humberto Brenes, he studies his hand for a while, and it apparently tests Matusow's patience, as he does this often.

Matusow to Humberto: "Do you ever look at your cards, see two bad cards, and just fold? I mean, what are you thinking about every hand?"

Matusow continues this rant for a little while longer, talking about questionable hands like K-J or J-10.

[Removed:326] vs. John Phan vs. Francois Safieddine

[Removed:326] limps for 16,000, John Phan raises from the cutoff to 48,000, Francois Safieddine calls, and [Removed:327] reraises to 160,000. Phan thinks for a long time before folding his cards, and Safieddine thinks for a while himself before bailing. [Removed:326] takes the pot.

[Removed:326] takes solid claim of the chip lead with 760,000.

Mike Matusow vs. Devin Porter

Mike Matusow raises from the small blind, and Devin Porter calls. The flop comes {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}, Matusow bets 26,000, and Porter calls. The turn card is the {4-Diamonds}, Matusow bets 60,000, and Porter calls. The river card is the {8-Spades}, and both players check. Porter shows J-10 for a pair of tens, and Matusow quickly mucks.

Porter builds his stack to 430,000 after being the short stack in the event just a short while ago. Matusow drops down to 330,000.

High Blinds, Small Pots

Most of the pots have been small lately, without a lot of action. But with blinds at 8,000-16,000, and the average stack at 422,000, even the small pots can move a lot of chips across the table. The chip counts are swinging a bit, and they will be updated often. Keep your eyes on the "Chip Counts" page, which you can find by clicking the link on the right.
