Mike Matusow checked over to Isaac Haxton on sixth street. Haxton bet it, and Matusow called. On seventh street, Matusow checked, and Haxton checked it back.
"Eight," Matusow said.
"Eight-five," Haxton said. He showed 
, and Matusow held his cards for a while, then mucked.
"Did I miss a bet Mikey?" Haxton asked.
"I was calling so fast it would make your head spin," Matusow said. "I knew exactly where you were at in the hand."
Haxton laughed. "If you knew where I was at then why would you call?"
The table laughed, and Matusow just shook his head.
