Moncek Drinking Double

[user66118]

Susie "SusieQue" Moncek opened the pot with an all-in move for her last 25,000 chips or so. Chase Steely made the call from the button as the rest of the table folded out of the way. With SusieQue's tournament in danger, the cards were turned up.

Showdown
Moncek: {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

Steely:

{A-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

It was no fun for Moncek, and she asked the dealer for diamonds. The flop was a big dry desert, though, coming down {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{3-Clubs}

. The turn was a {6-?}

{6-?}

, except it wasn't. The dealer appeared to flip two cards, and he retracted it and held his hand up in apology. The {6-?}

{6-?}

was apparently the next burn card, and his second crack at dealing fourth street brought a miraculous {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

to pull Moncek into the lead. A safe {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

filled out the board, and SusieQue has picked up an early double to work with. She's now up over 50,000 for the first time in three days.
