Mid-Morning Mattern
Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
A strange hand just dented Team PokerStars Pro Arnaud Mattern's stack yet further (he's down to around 16,000). The player in Seat 10 (we're just waiting on the final Day 1a player list) raised under the gun, and Loannis Fatouros three-bet to 1,200. Mattern, in position on them both, flat called, as did the big blind and the initial raiser.
The flop: Check. Check. Check. Check.
The turn: The big blind checked again and UTG bet out 2,125. It passed to Mattern, who chose that moment to apply pressure in the form of a raise to 6,100. The action returned to UTG who paused for quite a while. Eventually he took the plunge, moving all in for 14,225, and was rewarded with an immediate fold from the French pro.
