Mateos Gets Revenge
Level 4
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Heads-up to a flop of 9♠8♣Q♦ where Adrian Mateos was first to act from the small blind, and chose to bet 35,000. Markkos Ladev called from under the gun.
A J♣ dropped on the turn, and Mateos fired again, this time for 30,000. Ladev slid in the call.
When the 10♦ rolled off on the river to leave a straight on the board, Mateos jammed for 89,000. Ladev took about 45 seconds before making the call for the majority of his stack.
Mateos turned over a king-high straight with K♣K♠ to win the pot, as Ladev revealed A♦Q♥ and was playing the board.
