Matt Matros Eliminates Scott Potempa

Matt Matros raised from the hijack and Scott Potempa moved in for his last 55,000 from the big blind. Matros called to find that his {K-Hearts} {Q-Spades} was dominated by Potempa's {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs}. But after a {7-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {5-Clubs} flop and the {J-Clubs} on the turn Matros caught the {K-Diamonds} on the river to eliminate Potempa and build his stack all the way up to 275,000.
