Mateos Turns a Pair to Down Nitsche
Level 9
: 2,000/4,000, 0 ante
Adrian Mateos was starting to build a lead on Dominik Nitsche when the two players opted to get all of the chips in the middle preflop. Nitsche was the player at risk for around 80,000 and started with the best hand.
Dominik Nitsche: A♠J♣
Adrian Mateos: K♠Q♥
The flop came 9♠8♥5♥ and Nitsche was still in front with his ace-high. However, the Q♣ on the turn vaulted Mateos to the lead and the 8♠ on the river changed nothing.
