Mateos with the Check-Raise

Level 1
: 500/1,000, 100 ante

Action folded to Justin Liberto, one of the three players to qualify for this event via last night's �3,000 satellite, and he put in a raise to 2,200. Berthold Winz called from the small blind, Adrian Mateos did the same from the big, and it was three-way action to the flop. Two checks saw Liberto continue for 2,400, Winz folded, and Mateos check-raised to 9,000. It did the trick as Liberto released his hand.
