Hand #219: Mateos opened with the ace-seven and got three-bet by Fares with the ace-ten. Mateos folded.

Hand #220: Fares opened with {A-Hearts}{9-Clubs} and Mateos called with the {7-Spades}{4-Spades}. 660,000 in the pot and both hit something on {A-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Mateos checked and Fares bet 425,000. Mateos, having flopped two pair, check-raised to 1,100,000. Fares, with the top-pair and back door flush draw, three-bet 2,675,000. Mateos shoved all in for 7,045,000. Fares made the call without much hesitation.

A 14,750,000 pot was the result. Mateos was well in front with his two pair (72% equity), up against Fares one pair (28% equity).

This could be the last hand of the tournament, but it was a long shot. The {J-Diamonds} on the turn gave Fares some new outs. The {K-Clubs} on the river was a blank though, and Mateos doubled! Fares dropped down to under 20 big blinds.
