Monaldi Doubles Up

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

With around 10,000 in the pot in three-way action on a {7-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop, the under-the-gun player bet 5,000. A player in late position min-raised to 10,000. Greg Monaldi, in the small blind, moved all in for his last 34,500 chips.

The original raiser tanked for nearly two minutes before slamming his cards into the muck. The late position player called.

Greg Monaldi: {7-Spades}{4-Spades}
Late Position: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Monaldi's two pair was ahead of the late position's pocket jacks. The turn brought the {6-Spades}, much to the dismay of the early position player, who claimed to have a pair of fives.

The river brought the {k-Diamonds}, giving Monaldi the win and more than doubling his stack.
