Matues Flops the Nuts; Owen Joins
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Adam Matues raised to 700 from early position, and Idan Greenberg called on the button. Todd Vankleeck squeezed to 2,000 from the big blind, and both opponents came along.
Vankleeck fired 3,000 on the Q♣J♦8♦ flop, and again both Matues and Greenberg called.
Vankleeck checked the K♠ turn, allowing Matues to bet 10,000. Greenberg called, while Vankleeck folded.
The 7♥ completed the board, and Matues bet 13,000. Greenberg stuck in the call, only to be shown 10♦9♦ for a flopped straight. Greenberg mucked, and Matues added to his stack.
At the same table, popular poker vlogger Brad Owen has taken his Main Event seat.
