Chad Holloway

Level 8 : 120/240, 30 ante

Matt "Nitro0" Affleck:
"Allen29":
"first01":

Affleck was in big trouble, but not after the flop came down to give him trips. The running turn and river improved him to a full house and he shipped the triple while the other two players chopped the side pot.

"The Mouth" Can't Hit a Big Draw

BrandonTemple

Level 8 : 120/240, 30 ante

Kenja "Chaos" Wiseman raised to 480 from middle position, and was called by Mike "Mouth123" Matusow in the cutoff and "bwizzod15" on the button.

Wiseman checked the flop to Matusow, who bet 1,035. "bwizzod15" raised to 2,790, and Wiseman folded. Matusow three-bet to 10,440, then called off his last 9,298 after "bwizzod15" four-bet shoved.

Mike "Mouth123" Matusow:
"bwizzod15":

"bwizzod15" had flopped a set of fours for the lead, but Matusow had plenty of outs with a gutshot and a flush draw. The turn and river failed to bring either draw in for "The Mouth", and he re-entered.

Player	Chips	Progress
bwizzod15	51,367
Mike "Mouth123" Matusow	20,000

Kenja "Chaos" Wiseman	17,680
