Aerts Takes Down the Pot with Two Pair
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
In a blind versus blind situation, the pot was around 15,000 with a board of 7♣2♥10♠2♦. Adrian Mateos in the small blind checked to Pieter Aerts in the big blind, who fired a pot-sized bet of 15,000. Mateos called.
On the 8♥ river, Mateos checked again, prompting Aerts to bet 55,000. Mateos took his time, burning through a few time bank cards before calling. Aerts showed 10♥3♣ for two pair, tens and deuces, which was enough to take down the pot.
