Montgomery Gets Things Started With a Double

Scott Montgomery wasted no time getting all his chips into the middle today. On one of the very first hands of the day, Montgomery shoved all in for 96,000 preflop and got called by Brad Bury in the small blind.

Montgomery: {q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Bury: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Bury was ahead to start, but he soon fell behind as Montgomery picked up a higher pair on the {q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop. Montgomery's hand improved even further with the {k-Spades} on the turn, and the {6-Diamonds} river was enough to secure the hand.

After he collected his chips, Montgomery remarked, "Two more of these and I'm chip leader."
