Alvarado Doubles with Kings Over Mattern's Queens
From early position, JC Alvarado raised to 2,200. Dmitry Motorov called from the hijack seat and then action fell on Arnaud Mattern in the cutoff. He took his time and three-bet to 7,800. Play folded back over to Alvarado. He took some time of his own and then four-bet to 16,400. Motorov folded and Mattern moved all in.
"Call," was the quick response from Alvarado.
Alvarado: 
Mattern: 
The flop, turn and river ran out 
and Alvarado earned the double up. He's over 100,000 while Mattern lost roughly half of his stack.
