Monnette Busts, Rutter Jumps to the Top

We just walked up to Table 364 where a lot of action was going down. The player under the gun raised to 525 after which Stuart Rutter, who was under the gun +1, made it 1,400. The action got folded to John Monnette who was in the small blind, and he moved all in for 7,050.

Both blinds folded and the under the gun player went into the tank for quite some time. Eventually he released his hand and the action was on Rutter. The decision wasn't easy for the Brit who took almost a minute to make the call.

Both players stood pat and Rutter announced he had '{9-}{7-}'.

"Are you f***king with me," Monnette asked with a look of disgust on his face.

Rutter turned over {9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and in frustration Monnette mucked his hand.

"Well good luck here," he added sarcastically as he paid his massues and walked way from the tournament area.

Rutter seemed kind off flustered by Monnette's behavior, but soon smiled when he found out his nick name was 'Angry John'. "It think Moannette would work as well," Rutter added with a smile as he's now one of the chip leaders.
