Monnette Mauled
David Bakes Baker now holds a more than 4-1 chip lead and most of those chips came courtesy of a Stud hand. This is how the player's hands looked.

Monnette was the bring-in with the deuce and Baker completed with his ten. Monnette then raised it up and Baker called. On fourth street, Monnette bet and Baker called. Fifth and sixth street would see Baker lead and Monnette call and then we were on seventh.
The final card saw Baker bet and Monnette raise. Baker then made it another bet to go and Monnette begrudgingly called.
When Baker snapped over his , it was good enough to make him the straight and good enough to send Monnette's cards into the muck.
