Matusow Caught With His Hand in the Cookie Jar

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Mike Matusow
Mike Matusow

A player had opened and Mike Matusow three-bet from the button to 76,000. Janet Hornung four-bet all in for 121,000 from the big blind and the initial raiser folded.

"The worst part about calling," said Matusow as he deliberated, "Is that I have to show..."

"Hand in the cookie jar," muttered someone at the table as Matusow committed his chips to the pot.

Janet Hornung: {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Mike Matusow: {7-Spades}{3-Hearts}

The flop {j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} gave Hornung trips and left Matusow drawing very slim. The turn and river {4-Diamonds}{5-Spades} changed nothing and Hornung doubled up.

"I was waiting to get him," said Matusow. "And this is what happens.

"Waiting and waiting...letting him and letting him..."

Adam Adler: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Antonio Esfandiari: {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts} board gave Esfandiari trips fives and Adler headed to the payout desk. Josh Prager had been eliminated before that as well.

Furth Picks Up Three Premiums in a Row

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Caleb Furth
Caleb Furth

There was a raise to 20,000 in early position and Caleb Furth just called in middle position. The button three-bet to 85,000 and the initial raiser folded. Furth stuck in a four-bet to 235,000 and the button called.

The flop came {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Furth led out for 135,000. His opponent called and the {6-Hearts} paired the board on the turn. Furth fired out another 280,000 and the button still called. The river brought the {7-Hearts} and with over one million in the pot already, both players decided to knuckle the table. Furth showed {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} for a flush and his opponent mucked his cards.

In the next hand, Furth opened to 22,000 and everyone folded. Furth flashed {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} as he picked up the blinds and ante. Following that, Furth raised to 22,000 again and was called by the player on his left.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} and Furth check-called a bet of 32,000 on the flop and then another 105,000 on the {k-Clubs} turn. The river was the {k-Hearts} and both players checked. Furth tabled {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} for two pair and picked up another pot.
