In the second or third hand of hand-for-hand play on the Money Bubble, after a flop of Club JDiamond 8Diamond 7, John Misirian bets 33,000 from the small blind, Scott Montgomery bets enough from the button to cover Misirian, and Misirian thinks for a while before he calls all in for about 80,000 with Heart JHeart 5 for a pair of jacks.

But Montgomery turns over Spade AClub A, and Misirian needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn card is the Spade 10, the river is the Club 7, and Montgomery wins the pot with two pair, aces and sevens, to eliminate John Misirian on the Money Bubble in 31st place.

Scott Montgomery  –  330,000  (83 bb)
John Misirian  –  Eliminated in 31st Place  ($0)
