Volpe and Yu in the Danger Zone
Level 14
Badacey
Ben Yu raised in the cutoff, Mike Matusow three-bet in the small blind and Marco Johnson four-bet in the big blind. Both opponents called and Matusow as well as Johnson discarded one while Yu took two. Matusow checked, Johnson bet and received two calls.
On the second draw, Matusow took one again, Johnson patted and Yu discarded two cards once more. Only Matusow check-called a bet by Johnson and then took one new card while Johnson patted it back. Matusow ended up check-calling a bet and mucked when Johnson tabled the 
/ 
for a Six-Dugi and a seventy-six.
With Yu forfeiting the pot, he plummeted to a short stack and joined Paul Volpe on the ropes.
