Last Few Hands Before the Break

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Hand #161: Adrian Mateos called 40,000 in the small blind with {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and Fares just checked with {q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. The flop was {9-Hearts}{q-Spades}{q-Clubs} and Mateos bet out 80,000. Fares re-raised to 250,000 and Mateos folded.

Hand #162: Fares called with {q-Spades}{6-Hearts} in the small blind and El Asmar checked with {q-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. The whole board was {9-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, and both players checked down, and that was good enough for El Asmar to take down the pot.

Hand #163: Mateos got a walk in the big blind

Hand #164: El Asmar opened for 180,000 with {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} on the button and Fares called from the big blind with {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}. The flop gave El Asmar a full house as it came {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. El Asmar bet his full house for 180,000 and that was enough to make Fares fold.

Hand #165: We came to the hand with {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} on the flop and Fares bet enough to make Mateos fold and take down the pot. He showed the {a-Spades}

Hand #166: First to act was Fares, and he bet 160,000 with {k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, and Mateos three-bet to 500,000 with {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Fares eyed up Mateos' stack, but ended up folding.

Hand #167: Mateos limped with {j-Spades}{2-Clubs} from the small blind and Fares checked {k-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}. The flop came {4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{a-Clubs}, Mateos bet and and Fares folded.
