GG Says GG to an Opponent
We caught action on a flop of with a bet of 3,700 in front of Gates from the small blind and the under the gun player having made the call. Action was on a third player in middle position who moved all in for 5,350.
Gates was the next to act and after pausing a moment, he announced all-in for around 10,000 chips. The under the gun player agonised over the decision in the tank before deciding to lay her hand down.
She looked please to see Gates roll over for a flopped set, and the middle position player with his top pair, top kicker.
"I had the same hand as you", she said to the middle position player.
The turn would add a flush sweat to the mix for Gates, and when the red hit, it looked as though the opponent made his hand, but alas he hadn't.
Gates added the good pot to his now 27,000 chip stack while his opponent hits the rail.
