Matthew Ashton Eliminated in 2nd Place ($164,700)

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante
Matthew Ashton - 2nd Place
Matthew Ashton - 2nd Place

Matthew Ashton: {4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} / {7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{10-Spades} / {8-Spades}
Mike Matusow: {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} / {9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} / {k-Diamonds}

Hand #289: Matthew Ashton brought it in with the {7-Hearts} and then called when Mike Matusow completed with the {9-Clubs}. Matusow kept the pressure on with a bet on fourth street, Ashton raised and Matusow reraised. Ashton called off with a pair of deuces and was looking to overcome Matusow's pair of nines.

One by one the cards were given to each player, and neither improved until seventh. Matusow caught a king to improve to two pair, and while Ashton caught an eight to also improve to two pair, it wasn't enough to overcome "The Mouth's" kings and nines.
