The Mouth and Minnullin Are Duelin'

Mike Matusow
Mike Matusow

Mike Matusow opened with a raise to 5,100 from middle position, and it folded to Albert Minnullin who called from the button. The blinds got out, and the flop came {4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Matusow bet 8,400, and Minnullin called. Both players then checked the {7-Clubs} turn.

The river was the {J-Clubs}. Matusow checked, and Minnullin took about 30 seconds before pushing out a bet of 16,400. Matusow considered for just a moment, then tossed out the chips to call.

Minnullin flipped over {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for a flush, and Matusow sat silently for several seconds before finally mucking his cards. He's down to 32,000 now, while Minnullin is up to 130,000.
