"Casino Royale" For Tate

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Toran Tate raised to 1,800 in the cutoff before Jason Simon three-bet to 4,100 on the button. "You might want to stay here. Somebody's about to get f**ked up," Tate said as the big blind then moved all in for 8,500. Both Tate and Simon called.

Simon bet 3,000 on the 9♠A♣2♠ flop, and Tate called to create a side pot. Both players then checked down the 7♣ turn and 3♦ river.

"Casino Royale," Tate said as he showed A♥K♥ for top pair. Simon mucked, while the big blind also sent K♠Q♣ into the muck as he made his way to the exit.

Dennis Phillips has rejoined the field, as did yesterday's bubble boy Brent Gregory.
