Another Monster for Mateos
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Adrian Mateos A♦K♠ raised to 60,000 from early position. Aliaksei Boika A♣7♣ and Tomasz Brzezinski 10♥9♠ called from the blinds.
Mateos continued for 55,000 on the A♠J♦9♣ flop, Boika, who also had a pair of aces, called before Brzezinski got out of the way.
Boika was drawing dead after the K♥ turn improved Mateos to aces and kings. The defending champ though, saved his chips, as he folded to a bet of 180,000.
