Phil Laak, during Event #7
Phil Laak, during Event #7
An early-position player raised to 1,800 and Phil Laak made the call in the big blind. The flop came {9-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{A-Hearts} and Laak led out for 2,500 with his opponent making the call.

The turn of the {K-Diamonds} was checked around. The river landed the {2-Diamonds} and Laak moved all in for his last 28,000 chips. His opponent folded. Laak claimed that he held {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} before raking in the pot. Laak now sits with 37,000 chips.
