"I'll Be Back"; Cates Tournament Life Terminated
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
After Daniel Alaei raised in the hijack, a short-stacked Dan Cates put in a three-bet on the button, then reached for his phone and began playing the theme song from "The Terminator".
Action returned to Alaei who called and then drew two, while Cates stood pat. Alaei still bet and Cates put his final bet in the middle.
Alaei still drew two on the second draw while Cates remained pat. On the final draw however, Alaei patted his hand, which sent the defending champion "Tournamen-ator" into the tank for a couple of minutes, while the dramatic theme music accompanied his imminent decision.
Cates opted to break his hand and draw one but it wouldn't matter. Alaei showed 7x5x4x3x2x for a wheel to eliminate Cates who of course uttered the famous parting words, "I'll be back" as he left the tournament floor.
