Henrik Hecklen was all in for 535,000 and Mike Matusow thought before calling.

"I almost folded," said Matusow. "If an ace is coming I know it's my time."

The flop {k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades} gave Hecklen a set.

"I guess it's not my time," said Matusow as the {9-Clubs}{j-Hearts} board saw Hecklen double to over a million.
