Katz Gets Aggressive on River
Level 23
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Adrian Mateos called in the small blind with 4♣3♦ and Cary Katz checked his option with Q♣9♦.
The dealer fanned Q♥3♠2♦ on the flop, giving both players a piece. Katz’s pair of queens were ahead of Mateos’ treys, and Mateos bet 400,000 out of position. Katz quickly called.
The turn saw J♥, which both players checked. The dealer then placed 2♠ on the river and Mateos bet 500,000. Katz, though, raised 1,025,000. Mateos briefly pondered the raise before folding.
