Back-to-Back Knockouts for Matusow

Level 14 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Down to the last 33,000, Roland Israelashvili got it in before the first draw as Mike Matusow had him at risk. Matusow discarded two while Israelashvili took one. Both then took one each on the remaining two draws.

Matusow exposed the {5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} and made a number one with the peeled {7-}. Israelashvili was drawing dead with the {8-}{7-}{6-}{3-} draw and paired the {3-} on top of it.

One hand later, David Benyamine was all-in for just 17,000 and earned calls from Ray Henson and Matusow. Benyamine took four while Henson and Matusow took two each. They checked to the second draw on which all of them took two. Matusow bet and Henson folded to get the action heads-up.

Matusow then patted and Benyamine took one. The former rolled over the {10-}{8-}{7-}{6-}{5-} and Benyamine missed the {8-}{4-}{3-}{2-} draw as he paired the {3-} as well.
