Cates Says Goodbye

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Daniel Cates
Daniel Cates

Action folded to Daniel Cates in the small blind and he raised to 12,000. Team PokerStars Pro (Argentina) Leo Fernandez then moved all in from the big blind. Cates started the hand with around 120,000 and called for his tournament life.

Cates: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}
Fernandez: {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

Like we've seen so many times today, it was a race situation. The {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{K-Hearts} flop kept Cates in the lead and so did the {6-Hearts}. Fernandez needed an ace or jack on the river in order to eliminate a tough opponent. Sure enough, the {A-Clubs} spiked and Cates' day was done. Fernandez is up to 420,000.
