Gutierrez Wins a Race to Leave Mateos With Crumbs
Adrian Mateos raised to 50,000 in the hijack, then called when Elias Gutierrez moved all in for 675,000 in the small blind.
Elias Gutierrez: A♥K♦
Adrian Mateos: 8♥8♦
Mateos remained ahead on the 5♠Q♥Q♣ flop, but Gutierrez hit the A♠ on the turn. The river was the 4♦ and Gutierrez doubled up, leaving Mateos on an extreme short stack.
Mateos recouped some of those chips the next hand when he defended his big blind against a raise of 50,000 from Mike Watson under the gun.
The flop was Q♥A♣5♠ and Watson continued for 25,000. Mateos called and the Q♠ fell on the turn. Mateos led out for 25,000 and Watson called.
The river came the K♦ and Mateos moved all in for 75,000. Watson called with A♦7♣, but Mateos showed J♥10♣ for a rivered straight to double up.
