Mateos Doubles Through Konnikova
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Adrian Mateos open-raised under the gun and picked up calls from Jozef Cibicek in the small blind and Maria Konnikova in the big blind.
The flop came 3♠5♦7♦ and action checked to Mateos, who made a continuation-bet of 2,400. Cibicek folded and Konnikova check-raised to 6,800. Mateos moved all in for 20,300 and Konnikova called.
Konnikova had 9♣7♥ for top pair, but Mateos turned over A♦A♠ for pocket aces.
The turn came the J♣ and river another blank, the Q♣. Mateos held to win the pot and doubled his stack.
