Gates Takes It on the Turn

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante

After a player raised to 600 from early position, 2019 WSOP Main Event fourth-place finisher Garry Gates three-bet to 1,800 two spots over in the hijack. Marko Pantelic came along from the small blind, the initial raiser did the same, and the trio took a flop of {2-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

The early-position player checked, Gates continued for 2,100, and Pantelic folded. The original raiser called and then checked for the second time on the {5-Hearts} turn.

Gates, who recently won a gold ring down at the WSOP Circuit International Aruba stop, upped his bet to 4,200 and this time it did the trick as his opponent wasted little time in folding.
