Big Double Up For Gates

In a blind battle Garry Gates just got his money all in pre draw against George Lind. Lind quickly drew one after which Gates tanked for around ten seconds before deciding to also draw one card. Both four-card hands got tabled.

George Lind{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Garry Gates{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

Lind squeezed his card and said Gates was a favorite to win. Gates turned over the {8-Clubs} and won the hand, since Lind had caught a {10-}.

"Which card do you throw away," Gates asked Lind who said he had tossed another {10-}. It seemed as though all the tens were almost gone, because Gates also claimed to have broken his {10-}-hand.

Not long after this hand Lind busted and Gates is looking really healthy with his stack right around 9,000.
