Default Re: Matusow and the K10

I think it's ok that he didn't push on the flop.

What's important is that he didn't seem to have any sort of plan. If you're not going to push, you have to make a decision about the variety of hands the opponent might hold, and then decide what you'll do dependent upon what hits and what action they take on the turn.

Matusow made exactly the wrong play. Failing to push on the flop, he obviously has less committed with his fairly marginal holding. A scare card comes. He gets bet into.

And the situation that he created involves folding here, as unbelievable as that sounds.

Blank on the turn, different story.
