Matsuzuki Turns Broadway to Bust Set of Kings

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The pot had already grown to 81,000 before the {k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{j-Clubs} flop, when heads-up action was joined.

Dan Matsuzuki fired for 25,000 from the big blind, getting a call late position. Matsuzuki continued for another 40,000 on the {q-Hearts} turn. The big blind moved all in and Matsuzuki snap called with his opponent covered.

Opponent: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Dan Matsuzuki: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

The opponent had flopped top set, but that was no good against the straight of Matsuzuki, who just needed to fade the board pairing on the river, which would give his opponent a full house or quads. He did so successfully, as the {9-Diamonds} on the river changed neither player's hand. Matsuzuki scooped the pot as his opponent was sent to the rail.
