Matusow Struggles

Mike Matusow is in need of some help, with the 3-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner currently sitting on a stack of less than ten big blinds. The hand that saw Matusow lose a bunch of his chips started when he and Keith Ferrera both committed 6,500 preflop.

A {4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop was dealt on the felt and Ferrera led for 8,500. Matusow made the call and a {4-Hearts} was dealt on the turn. With three fours on the board, Ferrera again led, this time for 20,000. Another call from Matusow and a {6-Hearts} hit the river. Ferrera continued his betting here, throwing out another 41,000. Matusow went with a call and then mucked his cards as Ferrera turned over {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}.
