Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
David Plotkin
David Plotkin

The flop showed {10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Spades} and there was around 55,000 in the pot. Action checked to Shane Brandes on the button, he bet 35,000 and David Plotkin check-called.

Mukul Pahuja moved all in for 280,000 total and Brandes quickly called all-in for less. Plotkin slammed in a stack, signifying a call and the three runners turned over their hands.

Shane Brandes: {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
Mukul Pahuja: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
David Plotkin: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}

The dealer burned and turned a {6-Diamonds} and Brandes was still ahead with his two pair but would need to dodge to stay alive. To no one's surprise, the {3-Spades} completed the board, giving the red-hot Plotkin a flush and more than enough to take down the pot. Plotkin eliminated both opponents and is the first player to accumulate a seven figure stack.

David Plotkin: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

The flop came down massive for Kurtz as the dealer spread out {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, giving Kurtz a set of cowboys. A {10-Spades} landed on the turn and Plotkin now could hit a jack to take down the pot.

The dealer peeled a {j-Diamonds} on the river, leaving Kurtz stunned as Plotkin just went runner-runner straight to overtake his set of kings. Plotkin pulled in the pot and Kurtz was sent on his way.
