Level 2 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

From the small blind, Rick Salomon opened with a raise to 31,000. Adrian Mateos called from the big blind.

The flop was {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Spades} and Salomon led out with a bet of 50,000. Adrian Mateos thought for about 25 seconds before he raised, making it 175,000. Salomon called.

The turn was the {J-Clubs} and both players checked to the {Q-Diamonds} on the river. There, Salomon put out a bet of 250,000 and Mateos folded after some thought, allowing Salomon to take the pot.
