Cates Wins and Tilts

Dec 19, 2014

The board shows 3diamond9heart5spadeKclub with 296,000 chips in the middle, and Noah Schwartz checks from the cutfof to Daniel Cates on the button.

Cates bets 145,000 and Schwartz tanks for quite a while before making the call.

The river brings out the Qclub and Schwartz checks. Cates checks behind, and Schwartz tables 9heart9club.

“G** d*** f***,” Cates shouts, leaving the players at the table think he lost the hand.

Cates however tables JclubJheart and says, “I missed a bet.”

Bryn Kenney, among others, burst out in laughter while Cates bumps up to over a million chips.

Daniel Cates – 1,060,000
Noah Schwartz – 920,000
