Gavin Best raises and then calls a three-bet to check a nine-high flop. His table neighbour bets what appears to be 16,000 after grabbing into his stack of T-1,000 chips. Best almost immediately check-raises all-in and that gets the trick done.
One table over, Christopher Mateo in the small blind faces a raise to 12,000 and a call by Kyungtae Lee on the button. Mateo ships it in for more than 260,000 and wins the pot without showdown.
“Nice steal,” Lee jokes and Mateo replies “pocket jacks” without showing his cards.
Christopher Mateo – 290,000
Kyungtae Lee – 470,000
Gavin Best – 145,000
