Matakis Wins Monster Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 9♥6♦3♦ and 79,500 in the middle Ian Matakis bet 79,500 from the small blind and was called by an opponent in the hijack.
On the Q♣ turn Matakis shoved for his remaining stack of 101,500. His opponent, who covered him, made the call.
Ian Matakis: A♠A♣7♣5♥ 
Hijack: J♠9♦8♦5♠
Matakis had the best made hand but had to fade a lot of outs from his opponent who had top pair, a flush draw and a straight draw. The 3♥ river improved Matakis to two pair and he collected a massive double up through his opponent.
