Plausinaitis First to Bust
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Paulius Plausinaitis raised from the button and Markkos Ladev three-bet to 23,000 from the small blind, which Plausinaitis called.
On the flop of 8♠3♠4♥ Ladev continued for 20,000. Plausinaitis raised to 45,000 and Ladev responded by moving all in for the rest of his opponent's stack. Plausinaitis called for 105,000 and players turned their cards.
Plausinaitis had 9♥9♠ and Ladev had J♥J♣, both players showing overpairs to the board. Ladev was way ahead with his pocket jacks and held as the turn and river came the 3♥ and 5♣.
Plausinaitis was the first to be eliminated and Ladev chipped up.
