Cates' River Overbet Gets Through Vitch

Level 5 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Action was on the turn with a board of {J-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} showing and Dan Cates was facing off against Chris Vitch. There was right around 17,000 in the pot when Cates put out a bet of 15,500 from the big blind. Vitch thought it over for a bit from the cutoff, then decided to call.

The river was the {3-Diamonds} and Cates thought for about a minute before putting out a massive bet of 75,000. Vitch dropped into the tank. He thought for several minutes before he eventually decided to let go of his hand so Cates raked in the pot.
