Gates Back from Dinner with a Cold Four-Bet
Level 13
: 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
Action folded to Kevin Howe in the cutoff seat on the first hand back from the dinner break. He raised to 5,700. Two seats over, the player in the small blind paused and reached for chips -- he wasn't calling either. The small blind three-bet to 13,300. Then action fell on Garry "Beast Mode" Gates in the big blind. He looked at his cards and then paused for about 45 seconds. Gates then reached for chips and put in a reraise, four-betting to 26,500.
Play was back to Howe and he tanked for a little bit, but eventually slid his hand into the muck. The small blind took a few moments and then he, too, folded. Gates won the pot and added a little over 20,000 to his stack.
