John Monnette Joins Five-Timers Club With $1,500 Triple Draw WSOP Title

Just a few days ago, the Horseshoe and Paris Las vegas was abuzz over David "ODB" Baker’s incredible comeback from two big bets to win the $1,500 Razz event.

John Monnette would like his friend Baker to hold his beer.

After an incredible heads-up duel with Christopher Chung to conclude Event #30: $1,500 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw that saw Monnette come back from half of one big bet, the mixed game specialist has claimed his fifth World Series of Poker gold bracelet and the $145,863 first prize.
