Hall Slays the Dragon
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
An early-position player opened for 2,700 before Daniel Cates three-bet to 8,500. Ryan Hall four-bet to 27,600. Action folded back to Cates.
He thought for a bit, dressed as a fiery-red dragon, he unleashed his power with an all-in bet of 105,000. Having Cates covered, Hall made the call.
Daniel Cates: ![]()
![]()
Ryan Hall: ![]()
![]()
Cates couldn't improve on the runout, queens held, and the dragon was officially slain.
"My mystic powers didn't work this time," said the dragon on his way out the door.
