Oh the irony. I can't see Helmuth raising A2 then being called with Q10 as an anomaly ( he called a raise with Q10!) , then raising after he made the straight... just bad play on Helmuths part when he hit the Ace . Same as when he was creamed with the trip7s. Bad grapes and ego at being wrong with his reads.

Loved this coverage guys, released on Christmas day too! Amazing to see Helmouth so deep in the event too but those antics are just terrible for the game. Also recognizing Dennis Phillips he seemed to have several WSOP Main Event deep runs in the late noughties and early 20-tweens but not seen him for years now.

Matasow was pretty dam beast at the main event. What at least twice he got knocked out very late w bad luck

Well, technically he didn't make a bet. He did APPEAR to make a bet, but the basic rule is "player intent." So the basic enquiry is did he INTEND to bet $3 milly. If the answer is "no," then you need to find a reason to hold him to a bet he didn't intend. In this case, they ruled that there weren't enough facts to require the $3 milly to stay.
