Matusow Wins First Pot of the Day
Level 23
: 10,000/20,000, 0 ante
Mike Matusow has been understandably frustrated with the early stages of Day 3. According to the four-time bracelet winner, who recently lost a big chunk to tablemate Greg Jamison, he had not won a single pot since play resumed.
Matusow opened to 75,000 without much behind and Eli Elezra called out if the big blind. The flop fanned out and Elezra bet enough to put Matusow at risk. Matusow put his remaining 64,000 in the middle and the cards were tabled.
