In the big blind, he called a button raise from Jan Skampa, and check-called another 150,000 on the turn of the board. He check-called 410,000 on the river, too - only to muck to Skampa's .
Roux is our short stack now on around a million.
Skampa check-called 155,000 on the flop and another 240,000 on the turn. They both checked the river, and Mattsson turned over for a monster draw that had turned to nothing. Skampa's was good to take the pot, and put him up to 5.5 million or so.
Mattsson bet out 440,000 on the turn, but Skampa made the call and they both checked the river.
"You win," announced Mattsson and mucked his cards. Skampa was not required to show, and is up to 5 million.
