Laplante Plants Frankenberger
With about 7,000 in the pot and a flop of 
, 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: 
Laplante: 
Frankenberger shot out of his seat when he discovered his opponent had flopped the nuts, meaning he needed a six just to chop. The 
turn was not it and neither was the 
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.
