Agate Spun his 10K to Make Pay Jump
James Agate was sitting on 10,000 in chips and was attempting to make the next pay jump. He moved all in after with his 10,000, following Terence Etim's raise from the cutoff to 500,000. Everyone else folded and Etim was handed a nice side pot.
James Agate: K♠K♣ 
Terence Etim: K♥7♠
The board ran out with 2♠9♠9♥Q♦2♥, and Agate won a small pot with his kings.
In the second hand, Agate moved all in again for 240,000 from early position after a pause, and all the players at the table were rooting for him to make the pay jump. Thai Dinh called from the big blind.
James Agate: A♥6♦
Thai Dinh: 10♥3♦
The board arrived with Q♠K♦7♠A♦4♥, and Agate managed to double up again and was more likely to make the pay jump.
A few hands later, Agate was eliminated, and he did indeed qualify for the pay jump.
