Level 2 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The board read {j-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{a-Hearts}{3-Spades}{j-Spades} with 195,000 in the middle already.

Adrian Mateos bet 50,000 from the big blind and Kahle Burns raised to 355,000 in the hijack. Mateos took a few seconds and responded with a three-bet to 1,050,000. Burns sat back, was trying to figure out what to do and then made the call. Mateos showed {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for the flopped two pair which he improved to a full house on the river. Burns looked at his own hole cards and then mucked them.
