Mateos Goes for the Hero Call
Level 6
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Frank Funaro and Adrian Mateos were heads-up in the blinds with a flop reading 
. Funaro checked to Mateos who threw in a bet only to have Funaro check-raise to 90,000. Mateos called and the 
landed on the turn.
Funaro counted out a bet of 160,000 and Mateos stuck around to see the 
on the river. Funaro slid out a bet of 328,000, leaving himself with just 3,000 chips behind. Mateos only had around 225,000 chips remaining and he dipped into the tank.
After nearly five minutes had passed with Mateos having a look of agony throughout, he finally called. Funaro showed 
for the nuts while Mateos could only muster 
for two pair.
