Laplante Continues to Grow His Stack
Level 9
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Ryan Laplante raised from early position and was called by the player in the hijack. The small blind and big blind player elected to fold and the remaining two went to the flop.
Flop: 
Laplante checked his option and the player in hijack put out a bet of 4,000. Laplante snap-raised to 1,100 and his opponent quickly called.
Turn: 
Both Laplante and his opponent checked and the 
river came completing some straight draws.
Laplante took a few moments considering what he wished to do before eventually checking his option. His opponent in late position checked back and Laplante turned over his cards.
Laplante: 
Laplante's opponent patted the table with a "nice hand" and the pot was pushed to Laplante.

Kornuth Joins the Field
Level 7
: 300/600, 600 ante
The field here at MSPT Venetian Poker Bowl IV has become more difficult.
Chance Kornuth of Chip Leader Coaching has just registered and sat at a table.
Kornuth, who is fresh off making the final table of the WPT Gardens, brings a strong reputation with having earned over $7 million and two World Series of Poker gold bracelets.
Kornuth enters late in Level 7 but with over 40 big blinds, he appears to feel right at ease.
