LaMonica Gets a Piece of His Nemesis

Level 28 : 60,000/120,000, 0 ante

LaMonica: {X-}{X-}/{7-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}/{x-}
Singer: {X-}{X-}/ {3-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}/{x-}

LaMonica completed with the {7-Clubs} and Singer raised. LaMonica reraised and Singer called. On fourth, LaMonica bet and Singer called. On fifth, LaMonica bet and Singer called. On sixth both players checked. On seventh street LaMonica decided to bet again and Singer called. LaMonica showed {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} for two pair and that was good to take the pot away from Singer.

Max Pescatori

Omaha Hi-Lo

Max Pescatori opened. From the small blind, Kevin LaMonica raised. Action folded back to Pescatori and he raised again. LaMonica called.

The flop was {9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Spades} and LaMonica bet. Pescatori raised and LaMonica called. The turn was the {7-Spades} and LaMonica checked to Pescatori who moved all in. LaMonica called.

LaMonica: {A-Spades}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{J-Spades}
Pescatori: {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

Pescatori was in good shape to take at least half of the pot but the {5-Diamonds} on the river changed everything. LaMonica made a straight and a low and that was good to scoop the pot and to eliminate Pescatori from the tournament. He will have to wait for another day to lock up his fifth bracelet but will collect $62,733 for his fourth-place finish.
