A Shove From Cates

Level 20 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Hand #100: Colman opened under the gun with {A-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for 180,000. Everyone folded and Colman took the blinds and antes. Hand number 100 wasn't all that exciting.

Hand #101: Action folded to Cates in the cutoff with {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. Cates made it 160,000 and Richard Yong quickly folded his button. Rono Lo with {K-Clubs}{8-Clubs} in the small blind thought about it, but folded as well. Colman made the call from the big blind with {9-Spades}{5-Hearts}.

The flop gave the two {K-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{8-Spades} and Cates was still in front. Colman checked to Cates, who continued with a small 80,000 bet. This inspired Colman to get a little frisky, as he made it 250,000. 170,000 for Cates to call, and he did just that.

Both with no pair and no direct draw, they saw a turn: {4-Spades}. Again both players missed. Colman checked, Cates checked behind. Still 920,000 in the pot and the {10-Clubs} fell on the river. No help for either players. Colman checked and Cates checked behind. Ace-high took it down, Colman didn't even need to show his hand.

Hand #102: Colman completed the small blind with {10-Spades}{5-Spades}. Igor Kurganov had {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} in the big blind and raise dit up. Colman folded, pot to Kurganov.

Hand #103: Yong opened the hijack with {A-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and took down the blinds and antes.

Hand #104: Lo raised it up to 180,000 with {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades} in the hijack. Paul Phua with {A-Spades}{9-Hearts} in the small blind announced allin for 1,000,000 and Cates quickly folded his big blind. Lo and Phua exchanged some words in their own language before Lo folded his hand as well.

Hand #105: Action folded to Cates in the small blind who shoved with {A-Spades}{6-Spades}. Richard Yong, the short stack, folded his big blind.
