Monsalves Doubles
Jonathan Monsalves is a fighter. He recently shipped his stack of about 1.35 million into the pot on the button with 
and was called by the 
of Julian Menendez. It was a race, but after the flop came down 

, Monsalves became the favorite with overs, an open-ended straight draw, and a bigger flush draw.
The
turn was one of his outs and gave him a hammerlock on the hand. The
river changed nothing and Monsalves lived to play another hand.
