Matos Rips Off a King

Nicholas Palma opened to 50,000 on the button, Joe Matos three-bet jammed for 261,000 from the big blind, and Palma made the call.

Palma: {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Matos: {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

The {3-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop was clean, and so too was the {3-Spades} on the turn, but the {k-Spades} gave Matos a winning pair of kings.

He doubled to 544,000 chips, while Palma slipped to 520,000.
