Matusow: 
Obst: 
The flop was a good one for Matusow when it came 
giving him a flush draw. He also picked up outs to a chop on the 
turn. But the river was the 
, giving him two pairs, and awarding him the entire pot and eliminating Obst in eighth place.
Matusow gave Obst a big hug after the hand and Obst shook hands with both Klodnicki and Thornton and wished them luck. He will take home $32,474 for his eighth-place finish.
