Mateos Takes an Early Tumble

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Adrian Mateos
Adrian Mateos

In one of the first hands of the day, Mathew Schiavo opened to 700 from middle position and Adrian Mateos three-bet to 2,500 from the cutoff. David Sayago four-bet to 6,600 from the small blind and only Mateos called.

The 734 flop saw Sayago bet 5,700 and Mateos called to see the 5 turn.

Both made slow checks to the 10 river and Sayago bet 6,200 and Mateos went into the tank. After around a minute, he called and Sayago tabled his AK for the nut flush. Mateos quickly mucked and lost around a third of his stack.
