Gates Shows His Nuts

Garry Gates

Just before break...

Mac Sohrabi opened to 325 from the hijack seat, Garry Gates called on the button, and Tyler Box called out of the small blind. The flop fell {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, Box checked, Sohrabi continued for 1,100, and only Gates called.

The turn was the {a-Hearts}, Sohrabi led for 2,300, and Gates called.

The river was the {10-Diamonds}, Sohrabi tossed out 4,000, and Gates raised to 11,000. Sohrabi quickly called, and Gates tabled {8-Spades}{7-Hearts} for the stone-cold nuts. Sohrabi mucked {a-}{9-} face-up as Gates raked in the pot.
