i don't know about fish... hopefully you were just being sarcastic...
he got a little carried away with aces but in all fairness prob put matusow on a draw... in the end he was only a 3-1 dog pot was already 50K when he pushed so he was getting about 2-1 on his money.... and everyone would be saying how great a player he was if matusow would've folded...

how could matusow possibly fold? he flopped top two

[Ensano]

flop came 10 high... a player could make a move like matusow did with any PP 9 or down not to mention Js or up... any open straight draw... any flush draw....

there are a lot of hands that would play out like this matusow happened to have one of the few that were ahead...

hindsight is 20/20.. of course matusow wouldn't fold top two... if seidel KNEW the hand he was against he wouldn't have pushed...

it was a good play... just bad timing...

if you were in this situation against another random player you would have gotten all in... i don't think many, if any, here would've laid the aces down...

I never say I can fold A's... how ever many players here say they can and do all the time :

There is usually only 1 or 2 hands that can beat A's on most board...
