Montgomery Working on a $1K Sequel
We're under 100 players now, and Scott Montgomery -- winner of Event #36, the last of these $1,000 buy-in no-limit hold'em events -- has once again accumulated a big stack. Montgomery himself told us some of the story of how he won his most recent big pot.
After raising to 10,000, he got two callers, including one in the big blind. The flop came jack-high and it folded to Montgomery who bet 20,000. One opponent folded, but the big blind then shoved for 73,000, and Montgomery called.
Montgomery held which was best at the time, and it remained so following the turn and river. He's now sitting with 190,000.
