Adrian Mateos all in.

Fedor Holz opened in middle position and got action from Talal Shakerchi in the cutoff — with a dead button — and big blind Adrian Mateos. The flop came {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds} and action checked to Shakerchi, who bet 275,000. Mateos made it 800,000 and Holz used a time extension before announcing a call. Shakerchi dumped his holding.

On the {3-Hearts} turn, the rest went in with Mateos jamming and Holz snap-calling with {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}. Mateos had {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs} for trips and needed help against the flopped boat. The river was the {8-Hearts}, no help to the Spanish pro. He had about 2.1 million and Holz had just about 200,000 more, so he collected Mateos' stack on the first hand dealt at the table.
