The action started with the player in early position opening to 250, and getting called by Garry Gates in late position, as well as both players in the blinds.

The flop came down {4-Spades}{q-Spades}{k-Hearts}, as all four opted to check their options. The {2-Hearts} fell on the turn, before the action checked around to Gates, who made it 450 to go. Just the small blind came along, as the {9-Diamonds} completed the board.

Both players checked, before the player in the small blind announced ace-high, showing his {a-Spades}{6-Spades}. Gates then turned over his {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} to win the hand.
