Nitsche Doubles Into the Lead
Level 5
: 800/1,600, 0 ante
Dominik Nitsche raised to 4,000 on the button and Adrian Mateos reraised to 16,000 out of the big blind. Nitsche called and the dealer fanned the flop of A♥8♣2♦. Mateos continued with a bet of 6,500 and Nitsche just called.
The turn brought the 6♥ and Mateos sized up a bet of 20,000 this time. Nitsche still called and the 8♥ paired the board on the river. Mateos jammed all in and Nitsche snap-called for his last 37,000 chips. Mateos tabled A♣Q♣ but it was no match for the A♦8♦ of Nitsche who made a full house.
