Mateos Fold's Pocket Kings

Laura Fryer

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

On one of the feature tables, Adrian Mateos sat with K♠K♥ on the button and was against table chip lead Will Berry, who had A♠A♣ in the hijack.

The pot stood at 1,360,000 and the 4♦Q♦2♣ flop was already dealt. It was reported that there was a four-bet by Berry pre-flop.

Berry bet 425,000 on the flop, and Mateos called, taking them to the 10♠ turn.

Berry bet out 1,300,000 and Mateos tanked before folding his pocket kings.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Carlos Caldas busted Mo Nuwwarah right before the last break and filled in the details.

According to Caldas, Nuwwarah raised to 55,000 under the gun and received two callers before Caldas three-bet to 280,000 in the big blind. Nuwwarah then moved all in for 1,100,000 with two eights as action folded back to Caldas, who called with two queens.

Nuwwarah didn't find any miracles on the board and was sent to the rail while Caldas moved up past 6,000,000.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Adrian Mateos opened to 60,000 from middle position and was called by Lingkun Lu from the small blind.

Mateos' namesake and compatriot Adrian Garcia three-bet to 325,000. Mateos reraised to 740,000, pushing out Lu. Garcia jammed for 2,925,000, and Mateos snap-called as the covering stack.

Adrian Garcia: A♠K♠ All in
Adrian Mateos: A♥A♣

Garcia was crushed, with Mateos the huge favorite for the 5,940,000 pot.

The 10♠9♥8♦ flop left Garcia with backdoor opportunities, with the 9♠ turn giving Garcia a flush draw. The 3♠ river gave Garcia the flush to crack Mateos' aces, with the latter sickened as most of his stack went over to his opponent.

Simon Gets There to Frustrate Little

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jonathan Little three-bet to 175,000 on the button and David Simon called in early position.

The flop came 4♣7♠10♠ and Little bet 150,000. Simon again called and both players then checked the 10♦ turn.

Simon checked the J♦ river and Little again checked back. "Ace-jack," Simon said as he showed A♣J♣ for two pair.

"Come on," Little replied as he threw his cards into the muck. "That's two times you've had ace-jack. If you don't win this tournament, it's going to be a miracle," Little added.
