Cole Needs No Showdown
A mountain of chips was already in the middle with four-handed action going to 
. Steve Patch was first to act under the gun and checked to Austin Cole, who was one position over. Cole bet 5,00 and the player on his direct left called, prompting a fold from middle position before Patch announced a call.
Three then went to the river 
and Cole threw out a bet of 7,000 before immediately grabbing it back and apologizing to Patch about not realizing he was first to act. Patch checked, Cole threw out 7,000, and received a fold from the player on his left after about 20 seconds to send action back to Patch.
Patch then went into the tank for about the same amount of time before sending his cards to the muck.
"Sorry," said Cole again of his out-of-turn bet as the pot was sent his way.
"No worries!" said Patch. "It was a close one!"
