Matakis Doubles Through Yotsushika
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Kazuhiko Yotsushika raised to 1,200 from early position and was called by Ian Matakis in middle position and David Cabrera Polop on the button.
Action checked through on the 5♠10♥J♥ flop and then Yotsushika led out for 3,300 on the 3♠ turn. Matakis raised to 10,300, which got a fold from Polop and a call from Yotsushika.
The 10♦ paired the board on the river and Yotsushika stuck a green T-25,000 chip into the middle. Matakis called all in for a bit over 10,000 and Yotsushika could only show 9♣8♣ for a busted straight draw.
Matakis revealed 5♦5♥ for a full house and was awarded the double-up.
