Chung Deals Near Mortal Blow to Monnette
Level 35
Christopher Chung bet from the button and John Monnette called from the big blind. Both players drew two.
After the first draw Monnette check-called a bet from Chung and both players drew one.
Action repeated itself after the second draw. Monnette check-called a bet from Chung and each player drew one.
With no draws remaining Monnette fired a bet. Chung thought about his decision briefly, saying that he "had to pay his opponent off" before making the call.
Chung showed 9x6x5x4x2x to take the pot down and leave Monnette with less than one big bet in his stack.
