Mateos Picks Off Kornuth
Level 22
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Adrian Mateos raised to 600,000 in the hijack with Q?10? and Chance Kornuth flat-called in the cutoff with A?9?. They went heads-up to a flop of 10?8?4? and Mateos continued with a bet of 600,000. Kornuth called and the K? rolled off on the turn.
Mateos checked this time and Kornuth slid out a bet of 1,800,000. Mateos called and the 2? completed the board. Mateos checked again and Kornuth went for a big bluff with a bet of 4,000,000. Mateos went into the tank for nearly two minutes and then eventually found the call.
Kornuth showed his bluff and Mateos raked in a huge pot with second pair to take over the chip lead.
