Russo Stays Alive
Level 21
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Elias Gutierrez raised to 100,000 as first to act, after which the action folded to Adrian Mateos in the small blind. He jammed all in for 850,000 and Aurelien Russo put in his stack of 155,000 from the big blind.
Gutierrez pondered his options for a bit but ended up letting his hand go after a count of Mateos' chips, leaving the other two players to show down.
Aurelien Russo: A♦9♦
Adrian Mateos: A♠K♥
Russo stood up but quickly sat back down as the 4♥Q♦7♦6♦5♠ runout saw him hit the nuts. He tripled up but remained the shortest stack on the table with nine big blinds.
