Yaroshevskyy Wins a Multi-Way Pot
Level 6
: 300/600, 0 ante
James St Hilaire raised to 1,500 from the lojack and three players accepted his price: Rob Mizrachi flatted from the hijack, Mike Matusow from the cutoff, and Igor Yaroshevskyy joined from the small blind.
The flop 
was checked to Mizrachi who announced, "Four."
Matusow looked to be interested, but he eventually folded while Yaroshevskyy and St Hialire paid the 4,000. "They all are gonna call, Jesus," sighed Matusow.
Without him, the remaining players looked at the 
but neither of the three contenders bet.
The river was the 
and action checked to Mizrachi who pulled out 7,500. Yaroshevskyy called and St Hilaire gave up.
Yaroshevskyy showed 
for a rivered straight, scooping another pot to boost his stack to roughly 120,000.

Mike Matusow Leaves Early
Level 6
: 300/600, 0 ante
The cards were being swept up by the dealer and yet another pot was being pushed to Randal Brown. Mike Matusow was gathering up his belongings and looking a bit down in the mouth having just been felted by Brown.
Matusow has been projecting a lot of positivity this year at the WSOP, predicting great results for himself, particularly in the Main Event that starts Saturday, July 8.
This wasn’t his day, though, as a late registration led to an early exit.
