Mateos Takes From Korsakas
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
PokerStars Gold Power Path pass winner Kevinas Korsakas opened to 16,000 under the gun and Adrian Mateos defended his big blind.
On the 8♦10♣3♦ flop, Mateos check-called versus a bet of 11,000 from Korsakas.
The Q♥ rolled off on the turn, and Mateos again check-called versus a bet of 45,000 from Korsakas.
The river came the 8♣ and Mateos checked once more. Korsakas decided he had put enough in the pot and checked back, and it proved to be a good decision as Mateos showed 8♥6♥ for the rivered trip eights, and Korsakas showed A♣J♦ for ace-high.
