Mataya Tries to Trap Rampage
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Ethan "Rampage" Yau opened to 9,000 from the button and was then three-bet to 21,000 from Scott Mataya in the small blind.
Yau made the call and the two went heads-up to a flop of 3?5?9?, which saw a continuation from Mataya for 26,000. Yau wasted no time in making the call and the duo saw the turn come the 2?.
Mataya decided to slow down and checked to Yau who then fired for 35,000. This did not seem to bother Mataya as he made the call to see the 3? fall on the river.
Mataya checked once more and Yau quickly checked back, to which Mataya flipped over A?7? for the ace-high flush. Yau smirked and tossed in his cards while the pot was pushed over to Mataya.
