Adrian Mateos opened to 160,000 in the hijack and James Chen jammed 1,000,000 next to act. The action quickly folded back to Mateos and he made the call.
James Chen: A?5?
Adrian Mateos: 9?9?
The 7?6?4? flop gave Chen some extra outs with an open-ended straight draw. The 9? turn improved Mateos to a set of nines and the A? river meant Chen was headed to the payout desk in tenth place.
