Double-Up for Alan Monte

Oct 27, 2024

Gary Benhamou opens to 16,000, before being faced with a three-bet jam to 102,000 by Alan Monte in the cutoff. Ayana Taniguchi is on the button, and she thinks for a bit before cold four-bet jamming for 120,000. 

Benhamou takes quite a bit of time before folding, and as he thinks Taniguchi clasps her hands against her face, almost in prayer. Benhamou, studying her quite intently, eventually folds.
