Monnette Takes Some From Mueller

Level 1

No-Limit Hold'em

Action folded to John Monnette on the button and he raised to 1,000. Greg Mueller called from the small blind and they saw a {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop hit the the board. Mueller checked to Monnette who bet 1,400, but was faced with a raise to 3,900 by Mueller. A call from Monnette led to the {10-Diamonds} turn which both checked. The {5-Spades} river was also checked by both and Monnette tabled {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. Mueller couldn't beat it and surrendered the pot.

Mueller: Down to about 136,000
Monnette: Up to about 145,000
