John Monnette Eliminated in 13th Place ($9,530)

[user66118]

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

John Monnette was all in by fourth street, heads-up against Rep Porter. On fifth street, the boards looked like this:

Monnette: {4-} {10-} / {3-} {2-} {a-}
Porter: {6-} {2-} / {8-} {q-} {q-}

Monnette was in a big lead with two to come, but he bricked off with a {Q-} and a {3-} to be stuck with a ten-low. Porter was drawing hot. He pulled a {4-} and a {7-} to make an eight-seven at showdown and signal the end of the road for Monnette.

"Runner-runner," Monnette astutely noted as he stood up to gather his things. "Perfect-perfect." With that, he was whisked away to the payout desk to collect 13th-place money.
