Salomon Takes From Mateos

Level 8 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

In the last hand before the break, Adrian Mateos from early position and Rick Salomon got involved into a bigger pot. Mateos check-called a bet on the {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades} turn and did so again on the {6-Clubs} river when Salomon made it 800,000 to go.

Salomon turned over the {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a nine-high straight and claimed a big pot. Below are the further chip counts of all players over on table 447.
