just watching the rerun of this on ESPN2...

sorry if this a dumb question, but I don't see how Montgomery lost this hand...

Text

Montgomery got all his chips in preflop just a few hands later with (A-Diamonds)(3-Diamonds) after Peter Eastgate made a preflop raise. Eastgate called with (6-Hearts)(6-Spades), and Montgomery promptly hit an ace on the (A-Clubs)(Q-Spades)(4-Diamonds) flop. The turn brought the (A-Spades), and when Dennis Phillips told the table he folded a six, Eastgate was drawing to one out. That one out proved to be the (6-Diamonds), which came on the river.

How does Eastgate's set of sixes beat Montgomery's three aces? What am i missing?

The community cards included a pair of A's, so montgomery only had trip As whereas eastgate had a full house: trip 6s and pair of As

Ouch you can't believe you missed that or ouch montgomery got screwed? Both probably, and in the fashion of ATOT I'll make you feel worse. That link you posted? Did you read that? I'm guessing no as the paragraph about the hand in question points out what happened. oops;)

The turn brought the (A-Spades), If at this point, you didn't know a 6 in the river will knock out Montgomery, you need to play more poker and when Dennis Phillips told the table he folded a six, Eastgate was drawing to one out. That one out proved to be the (6-Diamonds), which came on the river.

Agreed....

I wouldn't say the ratio is that lopsided.

Eastgate did catch some cards at the final table that made his job alot easier.....
