Pflock on the Wrong Side of a Cooler
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Pascal Pflock raised to 16,000 from the cutoff and Pascal Pflock three-bet out of the small blind to 65,000. Once the big blind folded, Calamusa four-bet to 160,000. Pflock five-bet ripped it, and Calamusa called for his stack of 551,000 total.
Pierre Calamusa :K♥K♠ 
Pascal Pflock: A♥K♦
It was a cooler that would see either Calamusa or Pflock win a seven-figure pot. Calamusa's cowboys remained ahead on the 8♥5♥Q♠9♦4♣ runout and he doubled up, while Pflock was left with under 20 big blinds.
