Christ Rivers a Bigger Boat in Huge Pot Versus Matsuda
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Michael Christ raised under the gun to 300,000 and was called by Tomoki Matsuda on the button. Both blinds folded, and it was heads up to the flop.
The flop came 6?A?A? and Christ bet out 400,000 before Matsuda raised to 1,000,000. Christ made the call to see a turn.
The turn was the 3? and after Christ checked, Matsuda bet out 1,500,000. Christ sat in the tank before saying "I should throw this hand away, but I've been playing terrible and winning, so I'm all in" and Matsuda made the call for five million more.
Michael Christ: A?K?J?10?3? 
Tomoki Matsuda: A?J?7?6?3?
Matsuda was ahead with aces full of sixes of against Christ's aces full of threes. But the river came the 10? to improve Christ to a bigger full house.
