Mateos Moves In on the River
Level 7
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Atanas Malinov raised to 5,000 from early position, with Adrian Mateos calling on the button and Aleksejs Ponakovs defending from the big blind.
The action checked to Mateos on the 4♥9♥J♣ flop and he bet 11,000. Ponakovs folded, but Malinov check-raised to 27,000. Mateos paused briefly before making the call.
Both players checked the 5♣ turn for the 3♠ to fall on the river. Malinov checked again, and Mateos shoved to put him all-in. The bet was for 67,000, and after a few moments, Malinov folded.
