Plater Takes it on the Flop
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Timofey Asmolov raised to 21,000 from the hijack and Peter Plater three-bet to 42,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Asmolov and he called, which saw Sathesh Muthu joke to chip leader Hermann Lee "just call?" Plater shot back "hey, we both know how to play satellite."
The flop came 
and Asmolov checked, Plater bet 25,000 and forced a fold. "Kings," Plater added and slid his cards into the muck.
