Double Double For Monnette

It's been a profitable few minutes for John Monnette. He first doubled up after he committed his last chips on a flop of {8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. His opponent, Michael Kinney tabled {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, but Monnette was well in front with his {8-Spades}{7-Clubs}. The turn was the {2-Hearts} and river the {3-Hearts} and Monnette doubled to 220,000 chips.

A few moments later Monnette was again all in, and again was in a commanding position. The board read {7-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} as Todd Hunter got himself into a tangle with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} and Monnette was able to gain maximum value with his {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. The river was the {3-Spades} and suddenly Monnette finds himself with 440,000 chips!
