Moncek Plays It Safely

Level 16 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Michael Moncek opened to 160,000 in the cutoff and Nick Petrangelo called from the small blind. The flop came {k-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and both players checked to the {9-Diamonds} on the turn.

Petrangelo checked again and Moncek opted to see the {3-Spades} on the river for free. Petrangelo finally led out with a bet of 185,000 and Moncek quickly called. Petrangelo tabled {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} but Moncek flipped over {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for the better two pair.

"Checked on the turn?" Phil Ivey questioned after the hand. Petrangelo nodded to confirm and Ivey's eyes grew wide.
