There was a raise to 12,000 in early position before Ryan Laplante three-bet 45,000 in the hijack. The big blind tanked for about 40 seconds before making the call and the original raiser mucked his hand.
When the dealer fanned a flop of 4♦2♦2♣, the big blind quickly check-folded to a bet of 22,000 from Laplante.
