Jungle Stumble

The action folds around to Daniel ‘Jungleman’ Cates in the small blind and he makes up the difference. Eddie Tasbas is his opponent, in the big blind, and he checks his option.

The flop is [Ad] [Qd] [9h] and Cates check-calls a Tasbas bet. The turn card is the [6s] and this time Cates check-raise jams, and Tasbas calls immediately. The look on the face of Cates says it all.

Showdown

Cates: [Ts] [8s]
Tasbas: [Qc] [9s]

Cates is at it and after the [Qs] peels off ont he river, Tasbas and Cates effectively swap stacks.

Tasbas ~ 92,000
Cates ~ 35,000
