Hand #22: Matt Matros Eliminated in 8th Place - ($52,033)

Jeffrey Dobrin opens to 210,000 in middle position and David Yu calls in the small blind. Matt Matros pushes out 650,000 from the big blind for a three-bet. 

Dobrin quickly folds and after a few moments of thought, Yu announces "sixteen hundred fifty". 

Initially, the dealer thinks he means 1,065,000 but after some clarification, the amount is changed to 1,650,000, with Matros, who is directly next to Yu, saying to "interpret his bet however you (the floor) want". 

After the count is finalized at 1,650,000 Matros immediately announces himself "all-in", with Yu snap calling to put Matros at risk as he's slightly covered. 

"What you got?" Matros says, tabling   , only to see Yu turn up with   

The board runs out       and in somewhat of a cooler situation, Matt Matros is sent to the rail in 8th place. 

He'll make just over $50,000 for his deep LUCKY SEVENS run, while David Yu is now playing just shy of 7,000,000.
