Matusow Takes Two in a Row

Mike Matusow
Mike Matusow
Mike Matusow has just played consecutive pots for the first time today. In the first hand he moved all in over the top of the opening raise from Cristian Dragomir, who laid down his hand. Matusow advertised pocket jacks.

The next hand Matusow was the preflop raiser making it 60,000 to go. Phi Nguyen made the call. They saw a flop of {2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Spades} and Matusow takes down the pot with a continuation bet of 70,000.

"Wow I won two pots in a row! That's scary!" said Matusow as he now sits behind about 650,000 in chips.
