Level 7
: 400/800, 100 ante
Mike Matusow and Phil Hellmuth each made it to fifth street, where Hellmuth paired nines and came out betting. Matusow folded despite pairing threes, as a player behind him had three to a low. That player raised and Hellmuth called. Hellmuth called sixth but check-raised on seventh.
