On The Draw

With the flop reading {6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} play was checked to Scott Montgomery who fired 5,000. Antoine Saout made the call before Thomas Bentham popped it up to 26,000. Montgomery responded by re-raising to around 100,000 which was enough to put both of his opponents to a decision for their entire stack.

Saout gave it up but Bentham made the call for his last 45,000.

Montgomery: {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Bentham: {9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Both players tabled flush draws, although Bentham did also have a straight draw. The turn was the {6-Spades} missing both, but the river was the {9-Spades} to pair up Bentham as he collected the sizable pot. Bentham is up to 145,000 with both Saout and Montgomery down to around 44,000.
