Mike Matusow Doubles Through Jeffrey Lisandro

Matusow and Lisandro
Matusow and Lisandro
Jeffrey Lisandro had the button and raised to 150,000. Mike Matusow moved all in for 700,000 and Barry Greenstein folded. Lisandro made a fairly quick call. Both players tossed one card and then showed:

Matusow: {8-?} {4-?} {3-?} {2-?}
Lisandro: {8-?} {6-?} {4-?} {3-?}

Matusow was the first to check his card. He peeked at it slowly, then looked at Lisandro and proudly said, "Your turn sir!" as he turned over a {7-?}.

Lisandro knew he was in trouble, needing to hit a {5-?} or a {2-?} for the win. He turned over his card and before it was known to those not at the table, Matusow yelled, "Oh no....oh no," in a fairly ambiguous tone.

It was quickly determined however that this was some sort of sarcasm on Mike's part, Lisandro had drawn paint and the pot was Matusow's. His legion of supporters applauded and he stacked his chips, which now tower over the 1.4 million mark.
