Monnette Very Low

On a flop of {3-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {8-Spades}, Scott Clements checked to his lone opponent, and John Monnette put out a bet. Clements called.

The turn was the {4-Clubs}, and Clements check-called another bet. The river brought the {2-Spades}. To Monnette's surprise, Clements led out into him, sending the short-stacked player deep into the tank. He had just 60,000 chips left to fight with, and he was facing a decision for his tournament life. After some serious consideration, Monnette elected to let his hand go, choosing to save his chips for a better spot.
