Mateos Flushes Out Di Nicola
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ermanno Di Nicola opened to 17,000 from the hijack and Adrian Mateos made the call on the button. Robert Bickley then defended his big blind to see the 2♣5♠J♠ flop.
Bickley checked to Di Nicola, who continued for 34,000. Mateos called while Bickley got out of the way. Both players then checked the 3♣ turn.
Di Nicola led out for 80,000 on the Q♣ river and Mateos took some time before raising enough to put his opponent all in. Now it was Di Nicola's turn in the tank, and he eventually decided on a call.
Mateos announced "flush" as he showed his 5♣4♣, while Di Nicola tabled K♠K♥ to end his run just before break.
