Mateos Gets Sneaky with Aces
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Danilo Velasevic opened to 50,000 from the hijack with A♠8♠ before Adrian Mateos made it 165,000 from the button with A♥A♦. Action folded back to Velasevic, who four-bet to 410,000. Mateos just called with his rockets.
Velasevic continued for 250,000 on the Q♠5♦2♥ flop, and Mateos continued to slow play his aces and just called.
The 7♦ turn left Velasevic drawing dead and action checked through to the 2♦ river.
Velasevic did not take the bait and checked for a second time. He then folded when Mateos bet 790,000.
