Demus Pays Off Cates
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Dan Cates raised with the Q♥J♠ and Patrik Demus called with A♠4♠ in the next seat. They somehow checked to the J♥5♣2♠A♦Q♦ river on which Cates checked and Demus bet 12,000. Cates check-raised to 65,000 and Demus started some table chat with his neighbour before tossing in a time bank chip.
The Hungarian could not find a fold and dropped below the starting stack, while Cates nearly started a rap song while raking in the pot.
