The Last Champ Falls as Mateos Runs Into Queens

Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Shortly after doubling up Jonathan Pastore, Adrian Mateos was faced with a three-bet of 150,000 from Timo Kamphues on the button and moved all in for 600,000 in early position. Kamphues called.
Adrian Mateos: A?Q?
Timo Kamphues: Q?Q?
Kamphues had picked up queens to leave Mateos at serious risk of elimination. The 2?10?4?3?Q? board didn't provide him any help as Kamphues spiked the last queen to make a set and send the 2013 champion to the rail.
