Cates Imprisons Kings
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Andrew King opened to 2,600 from middle position and action folded around to Dan Cates in the big blind who three-bet to 10,000 and King called.
The J♣Q♥K♥ flop saw Cates bet 8,000 and King raise to 25,000. Cates moved all in for around 58,000 and King called.
Dan Cates: 10♣9♣
Andrew King: A♣K♠
Cates had flopped a straight and a backdoor flush draw, and King was currently sitting with top pair, with a better straight draw.
Cates waved his wand as the dealer placed the Q♦ turn. Cates secured his double on the 5♠ river.
