Plater Takes the Lead

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

While Sathesh Muthu dominated the first two hands and claimed the pot without showdown, a fresh glass of red whine arrived for Peter Plater and he joked "alright, now you are in trouble."

Right the very next hand, Plater raised to 40,000 and Muthu called. On the {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop, Muthu check-called a bet of 60,000 before the {Q-Hearts} turn was checked through. Muthu bet the {10-Hearts} river for 100,000 and Plater min-raised to 200,000. Muthu called and mucked once Plater turned over his {J-Spades}{8-Diamonds} for a queen-high straight.

"I don't hear anyone clapping," Plater joked and the rail, mostly supporting Muthu, was silent. Muthu however smiled and said "I clap for you" and did so.

Plater won the next three-bet pot after a {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop with a bet of 110,000 and took the lead.
