Mateos Spikes the River For a Massive Double Off Vaskaboinikau
Level 17
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau raised to 200,000 under the gun and Adrian Mateos moved all in for 900,000 in the big blind. Vaskaboinikau snap-called.
Adrian Mateos: A?Q? 
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: Q?Q?
Vaskaboinikau was ahead with his queens as Mateos was looking for an ace to stay alive. The K?3?4?2? board gave him straight and flush draws going to the river, and he hit a flush on the 10? to double up as Vaskaboinikau threw his cards across the table in frustration before handing over the massive pot.
