Monroe on the Move

Level 21 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

David Nicholson opened with a raise to 16,000 from middle position and picked up three callers behind him including Jerry Monroe sitting one seat to his left. The flop came {4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{K-Hearts}, and Nicholson continued for 26,000. Monroe raised to 80,000, scattering the other two, and after thinking a few moments Nicholson called.

The turn was the {2-Spades}. This time Nicholson checked, and when Monroe tossed out a bet of 140,000, Nicholson again took a few moments before making the call.

The river was the {3-Diamonds}. Nicholson checked once more, and once more Monroe was carving out chips to bet. He pushed out two tall columns of gray chips — a bet of 200,000 — and Nicholson folded.

Nicholson falls back a bit after having led the counts, while Monroe now appears to have pushed into the lead with more than 800,000.
