Shakerchi Folds after Third Draw
Level 1
: 500/1,000, 0 ante
Big pots will come in later stages as players are warming up during the first level.
John Monnette, who won the no-limit single draw version of this tournament a few days ago, has just won a minor pot against Talal Shakerchi.
Monnette defended his big blind against Shakerchi's open from the button and then discarded two. Shakerchi took three and they checked the following betting round.
Both players drew two on the second draw and Monnette check-called this time. The final draw saw both players take one, and Monnette scooped the pot with an uncalled bet.
