Plouffe Pounded Down

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Corey Hochman opened the pot with a standard raise before Philippe Plouffe three-bet an additional 49,000 on top. When it came back to Hochman, he shoved all in for 348,00, and Plouffe quickly called with the {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades}. It was a bit of a cooler; Hochman turned up the {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}, needing some help to stay alive.

And he'd get a good bit of help. The {J-Spades} {A-Hearts} {6-Clubs} flop was just what Dr. Hochman ordered, pulling himself into a big lead with two to come. The {7-Hearts} turn meant that he needed only fade the case king to stay alive, and the {J-Diamonds} was safe and clean.

Hochman has thusly doubled his way up to 720,000, while Plouffe drops all the way back to 205,000.
