Mateos Celebrates Hollywood Style

Adrian Mateos won the 2016 World Series of Poker $1,500 Summer Solstice event this afternoon. He bested a field of 1,840 entries and won a first-place prize of $409,171.

He came back from a sizable deficit in heads-up play to collect his second WSOP bracelet, adding to a trophy case that includes both the WSOP Europe Main Event and European Poker Tour Grand Final titles.

So what did the spicy 21-year-old Spanish phenom do to celebrate his latest victory? He hopped in a car, drove over to the M Resort on the other side of town, and late-registered the Hollywood Poker Open Season 4 Championship Event of course.

Mateos made the drive south and just turned up at the tables here moments ago, picking up his 25,000-chip stack and letting it rip.
