Cates Wins First WSOP Match

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Daniel Cates had Bertrand Grospellier short-stacked and desperate for a double up. With Grospellier on the small blind he shoved and Cates called holding {A-} {10-Hearts} and was ahead of Elky's {K-} {8-}. The flop came {10-} {10-} {8-} and the Frenchman headed for the door.
