We found Daniel Cates and another player heads up in a hand with each getting worked over by a massage therapist. The board was {10-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {9-Spades} and Cates bet 3,300. His opponent made it 9,900 to go and Cates let his hand go.

Although he lost the hand, Cates looked much more relaxed without having to stack the pot.
