Guay Eliminates "Texas Mike" in Monster Pot
Nível 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Michael Moncek—better known under his moniker "Texas Mike" and frequently seen in the highest cash games—was one of the top stacks in this tournament. The emphasis here is on 'was,' as suddenly, Moncek was seen making his way to the payout desk with David Guay stacking up more than 3 million in chips.
According to Guay, Moncek had opened two seats to his right and Sebastion Toro, seated between them, put in a three-bet. Guay picked up pocket queens and put in a cold four-bet, which brought the action back on Moncek.
"Texas Mike" five-bet shoved all in for around 1,500,000, and Guay called. Moncek had pocket eights and didn't find help against the queens.
