Huge Pot Divided Amongst Three Players

A huge pot has just developed between Dustin Sitar, Mike Matusow and James Van Alstyne. The board read {7-Clubs}{9-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts}, with Sitar all in and Matusow and Van Alstyne betting hard on the river to create a side pot.

At showdown Sitar won the high for the main pot with 8-T-9-J for a straight. Matusow showed {A-Hearts}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} for top two and nut low to get 3/4 of the side pot as Van Alstyne was left with sharing the low with his {A-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}.

After some confusion with the chopping of chips, Matusow is still going strong with about 250,000 chips.
