John Matsuda
John Matsuda raised to 200,000 from under the gun with the A ♥️ 9 ♠️ and Marc Rivera in the cutoff three-bet to 650,000 with A ♦️ 10 ♥️ . Thanh Cao Nguyen reluctantly folded the 8 ♠️ 8 ♦️ in the small blind whereas Matsuda mulled it over and then four-bet to 2,300,000 with 340,000 behind.
Rivera folded and Matsuda won the pot with the least strong hand involved.
