Mateos Starting Well

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Ben Dobson came in for a raise to 400 from the button and Adrian Mateos, who at the tender age of 19-years old won the 2013 World Series of Poker Europe Main Event, called from the small blind. Senh Ung folded from the big blind meaning it was heads-up to the {6-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{K-Clubs} flop.

Mateos checked and Dobson checked behind. Mateos took up the role of aggressor on the {10-Hearts} turn, betting 600. Dobson called. The {9-Hearts} river saw Mateos revert to checking, and Dobson checked behind. Mateos showed {Q-Clubs}{10-Spades} for two pair and won when Dobson mucked.

Fresh Blood

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Three new faces have entered the High Roller, making the waters more shark-infested than ever.

Mian Wei has entered the fray, as has Tom Hall who is sporting a rather shirt decorated with different species of birds. The third new player is America's Jason Wheeler who informed us his flight from Amsterdam was initially diverted then he and his fellow passengers were left waiting for their luggage for two hours before he finally made it to Nottingham.

Warburton Chips Up

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante
Steven Warburton
Steven Warburton

Steven Warburton was the first to act and he made it 400 to go from his sea in the cutoff. Dangerous Spaniard, Sergio Aido, quickly made it 1,200 to go from the button and Warburton tossed in calling chips.

The {2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop was checked by Warburton, Aido bet 1,200 and Warburton called. Warburton checked again when the dealer placed the {8-Clubs} onto the partypoker-branded felt and this time Aido checked behind. The river was the {10-Diamonds} and Warburton sat pondering what to do, eventually settling on a bet of 2,800. Aido wasn't prepared to pay this and he mucked, leaving Warburton to climb over the starting stack of 50,000.

Ung Soars Into the Lead

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

Adrian Mateos raised to 400 from under the gun putting the action on Senh Ung in the next seat along. Ung three-bet to 1,500 which folded out everyone in turn, until Mateos called.

Mateos checked the {6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Hearts} flop, Ung bet 2,000 and Mateos called. Another check by Mateos on the {5-Diamonds} turn was followed by a check from Ung. The {K-Clubs} river saw Mateos check and then face a 3,500 bet from Ung. Thirty seconds passed by before Mateos called, but his hand hit the muck when Ung revealed the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}.
