Mateos Finds the Chop
Level 10
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Alejandro Lococo opened to 8,000 on the button before Adrian Mateos moved all in from the small blind. Vladimir Troyanovskiy was next to act in the big blind, and he quickly shoved his stack.
Lococo got out of the way, leaving Mateos at risk heads up.
Adrian Mateos: A♥7♦ 
Vladimir Troyanovskiy: A♠Q♣
Troyanovskiy was in good shape, but the 10♦3♦6♣10♣6♥ runout left both players chopping the pot to keep Mateos alive.
