Katz Plays "Friendly Game"

Level 34 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Preston McEwen opened the action with a raise to 800,000 on the button, and after Breno Drumond folded in the small blind, Cary Katz in the big blind took some time, before three-betting to 3,400,000, which got a snap fold from McEwen.

The very next hand it folded to Katz in the small blind, and looked at Jaehoon Baek in the big blind, and said "Friendly game?" as he limped in. Baek obliged and checked his option.

The players kept it friendly, checking to showdown as the board ran out 96QJK. Katz tabled J5 which was good to take the pot as Baek quickly mucked.
