Sick Board Gets Cressent Back in the Hand

Level 25: 40,000/80,000 (80,000)
Entries: 27/1,226

Alex Montgomery jammed for slightly less than 1 million from middle position before Arnaud Cressent called off his stack of 725,000 from the big blind.

Arnaud Cressent: 6♦6♥
Alex Montgomery: 5♥5♦

Cressent was far ahead but that all changed after Montgomery flopped the goods with the 10♠10♥5♠ flop improving him to a full house

However, the 10♦ turn put trips on the board and improved Cressent to a better full house. Cressent doubled through Montgomery after the J♠ river completed the board.

Arnaud Cressent – 1.6 million
Alex Montgomery – 175,000
