Petrangelo Doubles Through Mateos

Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Nick Petrangelo raised to 100,000 and Erik Seidel defended the big blind. On the {K-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop, Seidel check-called a bet of 50,000 and the {6-Diamonds} turn was checked through. On the {7-Hearts} river, Seidel bet 150,000 and was called to flip over {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for a winning straight.

Adrian Mateos then open-shoved with his massive stack from the small blind to force a fold from Ramin Hajiyev, and shoved the next hand from the button also. This time, Petrangelo called for 680,000 in the big blind. "Just to let you guys know, I just bubbled one of these 10k with tens versus queen-five. Can we make him muck now because it is such a crap hand?" Petrangelo said.

Nick Petrangelo: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Adrian Mateos: {J-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}

The board came {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Petrangelo doubled.
