Cates Stops the Ivey Train for a Moment

Level 19 : 0/0, 80,000 ante

In a limped pot to the {9-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop, Dan cates bet 200,000 with the {9-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for two pair and Phil Ivey called with the {K-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. The {7-Spades} turn was checked, as was the {8-Clubs} river, and Cates won the pot.

The next limped pot brought a flop of {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and Cates checked his {J-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, Ivey checked behind with {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. The {6-Hearts} turn was checked, and Cates' bet of 225,000 on the {6-Spades} river was called by Ivey.

Cates then opened to 575,000 with the {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and Ivey quickly prepared a three-bet before making it more than 2.3 million to go with pocket aces. A snap-fold followed and Cates received a walk with the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} right after.
