Mateos Takes One Down Early

Level 1 : 1,000/1,000, 1,000 ante

Brandon Steven opened from the cutoff with a raise to 2,500. Adrian Mateos called on the button and Nick Petrangelo called as well from the big blind.

The flop was {Q-Clubs}{J-Spades}{3-Spades} and all three players checked to see the {5-Diamonds} on the turn. There, Petrangelo led out with a bet of 9,000. Steven quickly folded while Mateos thought for a bit, then called.

On the {6-Spades} river both players checked again.

"Ace high," Petrangelo said, waiting to reveal his {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}. Mateos had that beat with {K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds} for second pair and he took down the pot.
