Laplante Plants Frankenberger

With about 7,000 in the pot and a flop of {3-}{4-}{5-}, Andy Frankenberger bet 3,500 from the big blind only to have Ryan "Protential" Laplante raise to 7,900 from the cutoff. Frankenberger thought for a long time before moving all in for around 40,000, and was snap-called by Laplante.

Showdown
Frankenberger: {7-Spades}{5-Spades}
Laplante: {6-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}

Frankenberger shot out of his seat when he discovered his opponent had flopped the nuts, meaning he needed a six just to chop. The {2-Hearts} turn was not it and neither was the {8-Clubs} river. With that, Laplante chipped up to over 100K while the 2012 World Series of Poker Player of the Year contender was eliminated from the tournament.
