Monnette Spikes an Ace to Double Through Kelmendi
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Micah Raskin limped first to act and John Monnette raised to 5,000 from middle position. Valdet Kelmendi made it 26,000 to go from the hijack and action folded back to Monnette, who called all in for approximately 23,000 total.
John Monnette: A♣K♠
Valdet Kelmendi: K♦K♥
Monnette was in need of help against Kelmendi's cowboys, and got it immediately on the 2♣A♦2♥ flop.
Kelmendi couldn't hit his one-outer on the 4♠ turn or 9♦ river and Monnette doubled his stack.
