Mattila Busts Theobald for Chip Lead
Level 6
: 200/500, 500 ante
Jussi Mattila limped in from the early position and so did the player in the cutoff. The player in the small blind completed and Paul Theobald raised to 3,000 in the big blind. Mattila was the only one to make the call.
The flop came 
, Theobald continued with a bet of 3,500 and Mattila raised to 9,000. Theobald shoved for 29,300 and Mattila snap-called.
Paul Theobald: 
Jussi Mattila: 
Theobald had hit top pair with top kicker on the flop but Mattila had a set of fives.
The turn was the 
to deliver Mattila quads and leave Theobald drawing dead.
The river completed the board with the 
as a formality as Theobald made his way out of the tournament area.
