John Tabatabai raises to 2,000 from the button, Peter Turmezey raises to 6,950 from the small blind. Tabatabai checks the relative stack sizes before asking, "Are you happy to play for stacks?"

He then elects to just call, and they see a {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{5-Hearts}

{6-Clubs}

flop. Turmezey bets 11,525 and Tabatabai raises to 34,000 committing himself. Turmezey thinks for a minute before setting Tabatabai in and the young Brit is forced to call with his semi-bluffing {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{5-Spades}

while Turmezey shows {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{A-Diamonds}

. The turn is the {6-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

, "Now that's a bad card," says Matusow.

Tabatabai needs to catch a five, nine, or four but misses out on the {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

river. He then finds out his opponent has him outchipped and Tabatabai is out.
