John Monnette Eliminated

A player in the hijack seat led out for 1,075 preflop and John Monnette, on the button, raised to 3,225. The hijack reraised and put Monnette all in and Monnette made the call. Monnette turned over {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}, while his opponent turned over a pair of bullets. Although Monnette was able to flop a nine, he wasn't able to catch up by the river and was sent to the rail.
