Chop Suey

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

There haven't been any pots of significance in the last ten minutes. Anything that gets to seventh, and there haven't been many, have resulted in chops.

If we maintain three players from another 26 minute, play will be halted for the night. If we get to heads-up play, the two player will have the option of playing one extra level before they are forced to bag and tag.

The Mouth Spews a Bit More

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Mike Matusow: {x-}{x-} / {3-Spades}{2-Spades}{j-Spades}{6-Hearts} / {x-}
Mike Leah: {x-}{x-} / {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} / {x-}

Hand #198: Mike Matusow brought it in with the {3-Spades} and then called when Mike Leah completed. Leah proceeded to check-call a bet on fourth before both players checked fifth. Leah check-called bets on sixth and seventh and showed {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{x-} for two pair. Matusow had another look at his cards and then sent them to the muck.
