Monnette Sits Among the Top of the Leader Board

Level 9

Omaha Hi-Lo:

John Monnette opened in the hijack, Cary Katz called from the button, Dan Shak called in the small blind and Phil Hellmuth defended his big. The flop fell {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, action checked to Monnette who bet, Katz and Shak stuck around to the {5-Diamonds} on the turn.

Action checked to Monnette, he bet and only Shak called. A {3-Spades} came on the river, Shak check-called a bet on the river and Monnette tabled {2-}{4-}{5-}{7-} for three fives, using two four for his low, Shak mucked, sending the pot to Monnette.
