Mateos Building a Stack
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Adrian Mateos raised to 4,500 from the cutoff and only Pavel Plesuv called, defending his big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of Q♠9♠4♣ and Plesuv check-called a bet of 4,000.
The turn card added the 10♣ to the board, and when checked to, Mateos continued for 15,000. Again, Plesuv called.
Both players then checked the K♦ river. Plesuv flipped over 10♦8♣ for one pair, Mateos then revealed his Q♣6♣ for a superior pair, earning him the pot.
