Isaka Wins It on the River, Mateos Takes a Small Pot
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
On a board of 10♦4♥J♦, there were around 25,000 chips in the pot when the action had checked to Shohei Isaka in the hijack, who fired out 7,500. Stephan Nussrallah called from under the gun, as did Antonio Saez in middle position.
The 8♣ on the turn checked around to the 10♣ river, where again it checked to Isaka. He threw out a bet of 26,500, which was enough to get the job done as the rest of the table folded.
Shortly after, Adrian Mateos raised from the hijack and got a call from Steve Heim in the small blind.
On the 2♦2♣A♦ flop, a small bet of 3,500 was enough to earn Mateos the pot.
