Ashton check-called that bet and one on seventh only to muck when Matusow tabled the for two pair and an eight-seven low.
The all-time World Series of Bracelet leader Phil Hellmuth just stopped by the stage. He walked straight up to his friend Mike Matusow at the table and congratulated him.
"Mike 'The Mouth' what a performance, buddy. First a 12th and now at least a third," Hellmuth said.
"Down in front," Eric Rodawig yelled. If you recall, Rodawig defeated Hellmuth in heads-up play back in 2011 to win this very event. Hellmuth took it in good humor, but seemed a bit surprised when the tournament announcer asked him to step of the stage.
"I've never been asked to leave a WSOP final table before," Hellmuth said as he walked away, "Good luck, Mikey."
Now that it's after midnight, it's officially Matthew Ashton's birthday. We're not quite sure how old he's turning, but it's for sure 22 or higher! Happy birthday, Matt!
