Monnette Runs Into Trips

Level 5

Limit Hold'em

A late position player opened with a raise and John Monnette called from the big blind. The two saw {9-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{5-Clubs} hit the felt and Monnette checked. His opponent continued out with a bet and Monnette called.

Fourth street was the {8-Spades} and Monnette check-called for a second time. He did the same after the {K-Clubs} paired the board on the river, but mucked his cards after seeing his opponent's {K-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} for trip kings. With this hit, Monnette's stack has been reduced to 6,150.
