Daniel Cates fell asleep in the Bobby's Room at Christmas
Bobby's Room is famous for its high-stakes game and eminent poker players at the tables. No one is surprised to see Phil Ivey, Doyle Brunson and other poker legends here.
The play in this room doesn’t stop for a minute, and the onset of the holidays is of little interest to anyone. On Christmas Eve, Gus Hansen, Daniel Cates, Timofey Kuznetsov and David Oppenheim met in the Bobby's Room.

The guys played PLO at $1 000 / $2 000 stakes, and Gus Hansen shot everything happened on video:
Daniel Cates didn’t obviously share the enthusiasm of his colleagues. The player fell asleep right at the table, which made Scott Seiver to be very surprised. Dan's respond was funny as well:
Sitting next to @junglemandan I must say he seems to NOT be enjoying the process. #TrustTheProcess pic.twitter.com/hlnnOKUtw5
