Mateos Takes From Korsakas
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
PokerStars Gold Power Path pass winner Kevinas Korsakas opened to 16,000 under the gun and Adrian Mateos defended his big blind.
On the 8?10?3? flop, Mateos check-called versus a bet of 11,000 from Korsakas.
The Q? rolled off on the turn, and Mateos again check-called versus a bet of 45,000 from Korsakas.
The river came the 8? and Mateos checked once more. Korsakas decided he had put enough in the pot and checked back, and it proved to be a good decision as Mateos showed 8?6? for the rivered trip eights, and Korsakas showed A?J? for ace-high.
