Donovan Bates defended his big blind from a Eddie Blumenthal open. He then called a bet on the J♦10♦K♦ flop, and bet when checked to on the 2♦ turn. Blumenthal folded, and Bates tabled Q♦10♠10♣8♦.
The very next hand, Donovan Bates called from the small blind then called a raise from big blind Nikolai Fal. Bates check-called a bet on the 8♠J♦8♦ flop before leading out on the K♣ flop. Fal folded and Bates showed K♥8♠ for a boat.
The hand after that, Bates raised the button and Blumenthal defended his big blind. Blumenthal check-folded on the 5♣10♦8♣ flop and Bates showed that he'd flopped a massive combo draw with A♣J♣J♦9♣.
"They almost had me," said Bates.
