Hand #289: Matthew Ashton brought it in with the and then called when Mike Matusow completed with the . Matusow kept the pressure on with a bet on fourth street, Ashton raised and Matusow reraised. Ashton called off with a pair of deuces and was looking to overcome Matusow's pair of nines.
One by one the cards were given to each player, and neither improved until seventh. Matusow caught a king to improve to two pair, and while Ashton caught an eight to also improve to two pair, it wasn't enough to overcome "The Mouth's" kings and nines.
