Baker Takes Monster off of Monnette

Stud

After a few small razz pots, John Monnette brought it in with the {6-Clubs}, and David "Bakes" Baker completed with the {j-Hearts}.

Baker{x-}{x-} / {j-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{8-Spades} / {x-}
Monnette{x-}{x-} / {6-Clubs}{10-Spades}{2-Spades}{4-Spades} / {x-}

Baker check-called a bet on fourth street, and on fifth street, he check-raised Monnette, who called. Baker led for the first time on sixth, and Monnette decided to raise. Baker tank-called, and both players checked on seventh.

"Jacks," Baker announced, tabling {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}.

"You didn't even have a pair???" Monnette shot at him, irritably.

"I had them," Baker responded, indicating that he started the hand with a split pair.

Monnette unhappily mucked his hand, while Baker raked in the monster pot to assume the chip lead.
