Matusow's Down Now

Omaha 8

Over on Mike Matusow's table, the player under the gun raised before Matusow re-raised from middle position, forcing the action to fold around to the player in the small blinds. The small blind called, as did the big blind, to see four go to the flop of {6-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}.

All the others checked to Matusow who bet; the small blind called and the big blind folded, but the UTG player called before the dealer produced the turn of the {Q-Hearts}.

The small blind and the UTG checked to Matusow who fired again and the small blind called, but the UTG player raised it up. The small blind and Matusow called before all three players checked down the river {8-Hearts}.

The small blind showed {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for the low, but chopped with the UTG's {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, leaving Matusow out of the picture.
