Kisacikoglu Sends Cates to the Rail

Level 6 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Orpen Kisacikoglu
Orpen Kisacikoglu

Dan Cates opened to 7,000 from the cutoff and picked up no fewer than three callers behind in Orpen Kisacikoglu on the button, Alan Sass in the small blind and Stephen Chidwick on the big blind. The flop fell {K-Hearts}{J-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and all four players checked.

After the {10-Clubs} turn, Cates bet 15,500 and Kisacikoglu raised it up to 44,000, which Sass called and Chidwick folded. Cates moved all in for around 220,000 and Kisacikoglu jammed over the top for 234,200 to force a fold from Sass.

Cates flipped over {9-Spades}{8-Spades} and was drawing dead against the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} of Kisacikoglu. Once the stacks were verified, Paul Phua asked "Finished? Re-entry now or tomorrow? to which Cates replied "now is a bad idea" before leaving the tournament area.
