Mateos in Infight with "bertaaa"

Nível 24 : 10,000/20,000, 2,500 ante

Mateos opened the action with a raise to 44,444 before "bertaaa" reraised to 96,000 total from the big blind. Mateos called, and called an additional 54,000 on the flop. The on the turn prompted a bet of 102,000 from "bertaaa", and once again Mateos called.

The third bullet after the river was, however, too much for Mateos, who finally let it go.
