Laplante Barely Survives
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
After three limps, one being Phil Laak on the button, Ryan Laplante made it 2,600 from the small blind. Action folded back to the cutoff, who moved all in with about the same-sized stack as Laplante's. Laak folded, putting the action back to Laplante. He thought for about a minute before putting in the chips to call.
Laplante: 
Opponent: 
Laplante was behind and needed some help to survive. Luckily for him, the board ran out 
, giving both players the same hand with the ace kicker, and Laplante was able to survive his all-in.
