"When I Tell Ya Don't Get Silly, Don't Get Silly"

Level 6 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Two players checked to Dan Cates on the button after an {8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop.

"Don't get silly," John Esposito warned. "Take the free one."

He bet 4,000 though, and Phil Galfond folded. Esposito called and both players checked the {6-Diamonds}. On the {4-Hearts} river, Esposito bet 10,000.

"When I tell ya don't get silly, don't get silly," Esposito said.

"I had a good hand," Cates protested.

Cates tossed in a call but couldn't beat {q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for a straight.
