Matt Russell Scores a Big Knockout

“You missed a big hand,” one player at table 75 says and Matt Russell sits behind a massive stack all of a sudden.

Russell confirmed that it “was really bad” and recounts a five-bet pot in which he then check-shoves a ten-high flop with pocket queens. Pawel Brzeski calls with aces and Russell gets there with a queen. That most likely lifts him to the top of the leader board for Day 1c as the last hands of the night will be drawn soon.

Matt Russell – 180,000
Pawel Brzeski – Eliminated
