Matusow Three-Quarters His Opponent
Level 15
On a completed board reading 2♣3♠5♥8♦J♥ with around 26,000 in the pot, Mike Matusow check-called a bet from his opponent before both players turned their cards up.
Matusow showed the A♦A♠J♣3♥ while his opponent turned up the A♥8♣5♦2♥.
Matusow had the high hand with jacks and threes, but both Matusow and his opponent shared the same low, meaning that Matusow gets 75% of the pot, leaving his opponent quartered and winning only the remaining 25%.
Matusow is one of many big names that still remain as Day 1 nears it's conclusion.
