'Plinko' Binks a Big One

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

The player in the hijack raised to 5,000, and the player on the button moved all in for 10,500. Josh 'Plinko' Clanton moved all in from the big blind for 30,500, and the player in the hijack went into the tank. After about a full minute, the hijack called.

Clanton: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Hijack: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Button: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Clanton was well ahead against his two opponents who held ace high. The flop came {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} and Clanton let out a cheer and a huge fist pump after flopping a set. The turn was the {9-Spades}, leaving the hijack and button drawing dead to the {3-Diamonds} on the river.
