Mateus Sniffs Out a Bluff to Double
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Ricardo Mateus and an opponent built a pot of around 9,000 as they went heads-up to a flop of 5♣3♠3♣. The button then bet 3,000 and Mateus called in the cutoff.
The turn was the Q♣ and Mateus led out for 8,500. The button called and the 8♠ fell on the river. Mateus then bet another 13,000.
The button quickly moved all in, sending Mateus deep into the tank. He took several minutes before calling for his last 34,000. His opponent showed A♣K♥ for just ace-high, while Mateus had K♣J♣ for a flush to win the pot and double up.
