Wong Leaves Moncek on Fumes
Level 25
: Limits 100,000/200,000, 20,000 ante
Jerry Wong: XxXx / 5x7xQx6x / Xx
Michael Moncek: XxXx / Kx3x5x10x / Xx
Carlos Chadha had won a small three-way pot without any major action on fifth street and then forced out Michael Moncek on sixth street in a small pot when both had high-card heavy boards.
Up next, Jerry Wong completed and was called by Moncek as the bring-in. Wong bet fourth street with the lead before he check-called on fifth and sixth street when his queen was ahead against an open king. Wong opted to bet seventh and Moncek called for his opponent to announce a seven-six, exposing the Qx3x2x.
Moncek sighed and flashed his 8x2xAx for an eight-five to drop to fewer than three big bets.
