All Action on Monnette's Table
Niveau 1
: 500/1,000, 0 ante
So far, it seems that John Monnette's table is the one that deserves the attention. Every hand brings some drama; at least if any action during the first level can be considered as a drama.
Monnette is the main character of the first level. Recently, the three-time WSOP bracelet winner lost against Shawn Buchanan and then got the chips back, albeit from Jyri Merivirta's piles.
Hand #1:
Buchanan raised from the cutoff and Monnette flatted from the small blind. Monnette took one and Buchanan two and the betting round brought some fire as Monnette bet-three-bet. Buchanan raise-called.
Monnette patted and Buchanan drew one before calling Monnette's bet. Buchanan drew one again on the third draw and both players tapped. Buchanan found what he needed when he looked on his new card, turning over which was enough to beat Monnette.
Hand #2:
The next hand saw Eric Kurtzman open from the cutoff and button Monnette called, inviting small blind Jyri Merivirta to the pot. Talal Shakerchi folded in the big blind.
All three players changed two and Kurtzman continued with a bet. He received two calls.
Merivirta took one on the second draw while Kurtzman and Monnette changed two again. This time Merivirta led to the pot, forcing a fold from Kurzman but a raise from Monnette. Merivirta called.
He changed two this time while Monnette stood pat. Merivirta checked to Monnette who didn't miss an opportunity to bet and Merivirta couldn't pay anymore, leaving the pot to Monnette.
