Banafato Caught in the Middle

[user75032]

It was a six-way limped pot on Table 150 (that's almost everyone!). JW Smith was the first aggressor on a flop of {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{6-Diamonds}

. He was called by John Monnette from the button and Jim Banafato from early position.

Banafato led out on the {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

turn. Smith called and Monnette raised. Banafato called again, and Smith called all in. Action checked on the {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

river. Banafato showed {2-?}

{2-?}

{7-?}

?? for the low half of the side pot; Monnette got the high half with {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{4-Spades}

{3-Spades}

, a full house.

Monnette also got the high half of the main pot. Smith took the low half with {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{2-Clubs}

{8-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

, the nut low.
