Guilbert Wins a Battle of the Blinds With Mateos
Level 10
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Adrian Mateos raised to 150,000 from the small blind and Johan Guilbert defended his big blind.
Mateos put out a bet of 85,000 upon seeing the K♣J♠K♦ flop, and Guilbert called.
A 2♥ fell on the turn and Mateos fired a second barrel to the tune of 300,000. Again, Guilbert called.
The 10♠ on the river got a check from both players and Mateos turned over A♠J♦ for a pair of jacks. Guilbert revealed K♠9♦ for trips and the chips went over to him.
