Mateos Gets There on the River
Level 10
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Out of the hijack, Talal Shakerchi opened the action with a raise to 190,000 and David Einhorn called in the cutoff. Adrian Mateos moved all in for 1,670,000 in the small blind and Shakerchi called. Einhorn folded.
Adrian Mateos: 
Talal Shakerchi: 
Both players flopped a pair and a gutshot on 
, and the 
turn changed nothing whatsoever. Mateos needed a king or jack to avoid elimination, and did so with the 
on the river.
