Moncek Under Pressure Against Wong
Michael Moncek: XxXx / 4x10x6x5x
Jerry Wong: XxXx / 5x2xKx4x folded on sixth street
Michael Moncek completed and was called by Jerry Wong, who then bet fourth street and earned a call from Moncek. They checked fifth street and Moncek bet sixth. Wong went into the tank and folded as both players moved to around one million in chips.
Jerry Wong: XxXx / 8x3xAx4x
Michael Moncek: XxXx / 10x2x3x2x folded on sixth street
Both tussled again shortly after with Wong completing and Moncek as the bring-in calling. Wong bet fourth to get a quick call and then bet fifth once more. Moncek asked the dealer to spread the pot and reluctantly called.
When Moncek paired his deuce and faced a bet by Wong, he gasped a "Jesus Christ" and tank-folded another two minutes later.
Moncek then won the next pot on fifth street against Carlos Chadha.
