Another One Goes to McKeehen

Tyler Boyer

Level 16 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Adrian Mateos was first to act and raised to 65,000 with A♣J♦, which was called by Joe McKeehen on the button holding A♦Q♥.

Neither player hit on the 5♠8♦K♥ flop, but McKeehen called the continuation bet from Mateos for 50,000.

The Q♠ gave McKeehen second pair, also giving Mateos a Broadway draw. Both players elected to check and see the 3♥ on the river.

With just ace high, Mateos fired out a bet of 230,000, and McKeehen quickly called to take the pot with his pair of queens.
