Cates Joins; Peters and Kuznetsov Win Small Pots

David Peters was the initial raiser over on table two and just Yu Liang called from one seat over. The flop fell and both players checked. On the turn, the action went check, check, as well and Peters then scooped the pot without showdown on the river by betting 8,000.

One hand later, Paul Phua raised to 3,000 from the cutoff and Timofey Kuznetsov's three-bet to 9,000 won the pot. At the same time, Dab Cates sat down between them and increased the field size to 12 entries.
