Mateos Takes His Pair to Showdown
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Facing a raise to 6,000 from Jamil Wakil in the cutoff, Adrian Mateos opted to three-bet from the big blind to 30,000. Wakil made the call, and the two players saw a flop.
Mateos continued for 35,000 on the 5♣10♠4♠ flop, and Wakil called once again.
Both players then slowed down, checking both the A♦ turn and the 8♦ river.
Mateos flipped over 10♦7♦, which was good enough to claim another pot, as Wakil returned his cards face down to the dealer.
