Matusow Wins Despite Missing Flush Draw
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 6♠Q♠2♦ and around 12,000 in the middle Mike Matusow checked from the big blind and called a 3,000 bet from Alessio La Francesca who was under the gun.
Matusow led for 7,000 on the J♥ turn. La Francesca raised to 22,000 and Matusow called before both players checked the 6♦ river.
Mutusow showed A♠4♠ for just ace-high after missing the nut-flush draw. La Francesca mucked and Matusow took the pot.
