Grafton Gives Up on the River
Level 7
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Adrian Mateos raised to 9,000 from the hijack and faced a three-bet to 27,000 from Sam Grafton on the button. Mateos complied with a call and a flop of 6♠J♠6♣ was fanned out.
Mateos checked to Grafton and the latter bet out 21,000. Mateos made the call and did again when Grafton upped the ante to 52,000 on the 4♦ turn.
Mateos checked for a third time on the 10♣ river and Grafton reluctantly followed suit after using a time bank extension. Mateos tabled 7♠7♥ and his pocket pair won him this sizable pot.
