Monicatti Wins Big After Sweat
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Preflop action opened with a raise from the player under the gun. Three players called - a player in late position, the button, and Mike Monicatti from the big blind.
The flop came 5♠9♠9♣. The player under the gun moved all in for 13,000. They received calls from both the player in late position and the button. Monicatti then reraised all in for 18,300. The player in late position folded, and the button called.
Under the gun: A♦K♣
Mike Monicatti: Q♦9♥
Button: A♥5♥
Monicatti's trips were solidly ahead, but faced a huge sweat when the 5♦ came on the turn giving the button trips as well. The J♥ on the river was harmless, though, and Monicatti took down the huge pot.
