Laplante Takes Out Two With Cowboys
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Ryan Laplante opened to 4,000 from early position and was called by the hijack and button. Action folded to the big blind, who went all in for about 29,000. Laplante smooth called and the hijack folded, but the button then back-raised all in for a bit more and Laplante snap-called.
Laplante: 
Button: 
Big blind: 
"I never win these," Laplante remarked.
However, the 
runout left Laplante best with his pair of kings and he scooped the massive pot and eliminated two players in the process.
"Sometimes I win these," Lapante said with a smile.
