Maciukas Squeezes
After a player opened to 17,000 from middle position, Garry "Beast Mode" Gates called from the cutoff seat. On the button was Marius Maciukas from Lithuania. He reraised and made it 53,000. The original raiser quickly folded, but Gates didn't go away as fast. In fact, Gates sat and stared directly at Maciukas for a bit. Maciukas was seated in the seat right next to Gates on the left and he sat motionless. Eventually, gates pushed his hand to the right and into the muck to give Maciukas the pot.
