Scott Montgomery had just crippled Adam Richardson when they got in four bets preflop and Montgomery’s K-7 out-flopped Richardson’s A-10 to leave Richardson with just 500,000.
He then moved all-in for his last 500,000 and was called by Scott Montgomery. Montgomery showed the Q
10 and Richardson was slightly ahead with his K
J
.
The dealer peeled off a 9
Q8, giving Montgomery the lead and Richardson was going to need a king or a 10 to take the lead back.
The turn was the J and the river was the 6, giving the pot to Montgomery and sending Richardson home in third place. Montgomery now takes on Mick Carlson for the bracelet.
