Eljach Doubles Through Kaplan Early On
Level 1
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
With around 2,500 chips in the pot on a flop of J♦2♦5♣, Omar Eljach checked it over to Paco Kaplan, who fired a bet of 1,100. Eljach then check-raised to 5,000, and Kaplan called.
A J♥ dropped on the turn and Eljach made an overbet by placing a chip worth 25,000 into the pot. Kaplan called.
When the 8♣ landed on the river, Eljach took a while before he shoved for a little under 70,000. Kaplan removed his sunglasses and stared at Eljach, then after around thirty seconds he made the call.
Eljach tabled 2♣2♥ for a full house, and Kaplan's Q♠J♣ went down in flames, which left him with just one percent of the starting stack. A few hands later, Kaplan hit the rail.
