Keating Gets The Mouth Yapping
Alex Keating raised to 6,000 on the button and Mike Matusow was in the big blind.
"Don't do it, Mikey," Keating said as Matusow threw in a three-bet to 17,000. Keating responded with a four-bet shove for 43,500 and Matusow beat him into the pot.
Alex Keating: A♣10♣
Mike Matusow: J♥J♣
The flop came A♦6♠3♣ with the ace in the window to give Keating the lead. The 5♣ on the turn and the 3♦ on the river bricked out and Keating scored a double up.
"Mikey, don't do it," Matusow mocked Keating. "The tightest guy raises you and you go ahead and four-bet shove with ace-ten," Matusow went off in frustration.
"Just playing GTO," Keating responded. "You could have king-queen."
"I haven't looked at a f***ing stupid solver in my life. You think I have king-queen there?!"
