Young Gutted

Pot Limit Omaha

Justin Young was all in and at risk against John Monnette with the board reading {3-Spades}{q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. Young's {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} was ahead of Monnette's {a-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, but the {5-Spades} spiked on the turn to give Monnette an unbeatable straight.

Young was already gone by the time the {3-Diamonds} fell on the river, and Monnette dragged the pot in.
