Philippe Rouas Eliminated by Mike Matusow

Philippe Rouas put in a raise to 5,000. Action folded around to Mike Matusow and he reraised to 26,000. Rouas moved all in for 43,000 and Matusow made the call. Matusow had Rouas well covered so it would be Rouas' tournament life on the line. Both players stood pat. Rous showed {10-?} {8-?} {5-?} {4-?} {2-?} but that couldn't best the {8-?} {6-?} {5-?} {4-?} {2-?} of Mike Matusow. Rouas is the first play to hit the rail while Matusow surges to over 240,000 chips.
