Moncek Loses to Derwiche; Doubles Lampropoulos
Michael Moncek raised to 350,000 on the button and Imad Derwiche called out of the small blind as they headed to the 6?6?3? flop. Derwiche check-called for 450,000 before they checked down the 6? turn and K? river.
Derwiche revealed the A?Q?4?4? for sixes full of fours and won the pot.
In the next hand, Moncek opened to 350,000 once more and Nikolaos Lampropoulos defended the big blind. Following a A?K?9? flop, Lampropoulos checked and Moncek continued for 850,000. The check-shove by Lampropoulos followed and Moncek called after a few seconds.
Nikolaos Lampropoulos: A?Q?J?4?
Michael Moncek: A?Q?9?7?
Moncek's two pair were very vulnerable against Lampropoulos' straight and flush draw with a redraw to superior two pair. One of the many outs came with the 10? turn and the 2? river secured the double-up of Lampropoulos for 1,505,000.
