Mateos Doubles, Busts in Back To Back Hands (Picks Up $145,000 for 4th)
First hand back from a short break, and Adrian Mateos finally picked something up, first to act – [AdQs]. With just 380,000, his chips were soon over the line. Big blind Matthias Eibinger thought for a moment, then made the call with [Jc4c]. The board brought Mateos a double ([Ts5h3sqhah]). Now up to 11 big blinds total, Mateos in the big blind called a Sam Trickett minraise from the button with [Kh8d], spiking top pair on a [TsKc6c] flop. He check-raised all in when Trickett bet a further 100,000, but was snap-called: Trickett was sitting on [AsAd] which held over the [7d4s] turn and river.
