Laplante Gets Three Quarters
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Limits: 200-700
Scott Tuttle limped under the gun and Benjamin Miner limped the hijack before Ryan Laplante made it 1,000 to go in the small blind. Scott Eskenazi called from the big blind, Tuttle called, and Miner folded.
On the 8♥7♣5♠ flop, Laplante continued for 1,500 and only Eskenazi called.
The turn brought the 6♦. Laplante fired again for 3,500 and Eskenazi stuck around before the 9♣ river checked through.
Ryan Laplante: A♥10♣6♠2♠
Scott Eskenazi: A♠Q♣8♦2♦
Both players had the nut low while Laplante's straight was good for the high as he got three-quarters from Eskenazi
