Palma is Dialed In

Calum Grant

Level 21 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Nicholas Palma limped in from the small blind and Adrian Mateos checked his option.

Both players checked the 9♦8♥6♣ flop, bringing in the K♠ turn. Mateos bet 100,000 and Palma called.

The 2♥ river saw Mateos fire out 625,000 into a pot of 500,000. After some thinking time, Palma called.

Mateos tabled Q♦5♥ for queen-high, and Palma turned over 8♠5♣ for a pair of eights to take the pot.
