Hughes Denied a Double by Perfect Final Draw
Level 30
John Monnette raised on the button and Ryan Hughes committed the last of his roughly 200,000 remaining chips from the big blind with a three-bet that Monnette called.
Hughes drew one while Monnette took two. On the second draw, Hughes now stood pat, while Monnette drew one.
The numbers remained the same for the final draw as Monnette still needed against Hughes pat hand, which he revealed to be 8x7x5x3x2x.
Monnette showed his 8x7x5x2x, needing to pull a three to chop the pot. The dealer indeed had tossed him a 3x, denying Hughes a much-needed double-up.
