Cody Sets Up Mattern

Having grown his stack every level since the start, Arnaud Mattern has been set back to square one (a little behind it, actually) after doubling through Jake Cody. Cody wasn't on this table originally, but materialised a few seats to Mattern's left a level or so in. Obviously a player on form, and one to watch out for, Mattern is currently frustrated that he's handed him his own 60k stack. Presumably that will be being put to use shortly giving the rest of the table their own headaches.

It was a {10-} {7-} {3-} board which did the damage - Mattern, holding pocket Queens, bet and called Cody's raise, and then bet-called the brick turn. He found Cody with {10-} {10-} having flopped a set vs. his overpair and this combination of bets gave him a full double through. "The only player at the table I would stack off with an overpair..." he mused bitterly, although the blinds are still such that his 24k remaining is still perfectly workable.
