Mateo Loses Big Pot to Lee
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Christopher Mateo three-bet to 450,000 preflop and Gyuhyuk Lee, who had opened to 160,000, came along.
Mateo led the 5♣5♦2♥ flop for 375,000 and the Q♥ turn for 750,000, both of which Lee called. The local player then checked the 7♦ river and Lee bet 1,275,000 for Mateo to call.
Lee tabled the A♣Q♣ and Mateo shook his head in frustration as he sent the cards into the muck.
