"I'm Just Running Really Good Right Now"

That was the remark offered by Matt Matros after he took out another opponent. They got it all in the middle on a flop of {4-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {3-Hearts} with Matros holding {K-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} and his opponent holding {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}. The turn came {K-Hearts} to make Matros a flush. He only had to dodge the remaining two aces and one king on the river, which he did when the river came {Q-Spades}.

Matros is up to 153,000.
