Dan Cates: 
Nicholas Palma: 
The board ran out 
and Palma doubled.
"I was gonna talk you out calling of it, but then I thought you were gonna fold anyway" Palma said with a smile. "I guess I'll take it now" Palma added. The two exchanged some words about who was deserving it more while the chips changed hands.
