Plum Gets a Big Double
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
In a preflop raising war, Markus Schweiger splashed in his stack and was snap-called by Mikkel Plum to create a pot of more than half a million in chips.
Mikkel Plum: A♣A♦K♦6♣ 
Markus Schweiger: A♥K♣Q♥5♣
The J♦8♣3♣8♠Q♣ board gave both players a flush and Plum had the best of it. Both stacks were counted and Plum doubled for 308,000, which Schweiger had covered by only two big blinds.
