Monforte Turns Rags Into Riches
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Daniel Monforte and Luc Gelly built a pot of around 25,000 heading to the river on a completed board of 7♥10♥J♠6♦4♣.
Monforte, in the big blind, then led out for 15,000 and Gelly went deep into the tank. He thought about the decision for nearly two minutes before tossing in a call.
Monforte then turned over 5♥3♠ for a straight and Gelly mucked.
