Mateos Staying Afloat

Level 54 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Adrian Mateos has found two recent double-ups to stay afloat in his match against Ryan Hughes.

On the first hand, Mateos held {A-Spades}{K-Spades} and was racing with Hughes' {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}. The board came down {J-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}, giving Mateos a pair of kings on the river to double.

Shortly thereafter, Mateos was all in for 153,000 with {Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Hughes trailed with {Q-Clubs}{8-Spades} and couldn't catch up, as the board came down {Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}.
