Big Pot Goes the Way of Johns

Level 18
: 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Limit Hold'em
Mike Matusow opened and was three-bet by Johannes Becker on the button. Action folded to Ian Johns who four-bet from the big blind.
Mike Matusow stood up. "Are you f@#$ing kidding me?" he asked no one in particular. Eventually, he decided to fold and later told the table he was holding pocket nines.
Becker called though.
The flop came down and Johns led out. Becker called. On the
turn, Johns led out once more. This time Becker let his hand go and Johns took in the big pot.
"That's the biggest fold I've made this whole tournament," Matusow said after the hand.
"I had you crushed," Johns responded. "I'm just glad he folded."
