Rutter Loses Some Early Ground
Level 1
: 25/50, 0 ante
The action folded around to British pro and all-round good guy Stuart Rutter on the button and he raised to 175. Ryan Laplante defended his big blind with a call, meaning it was heads up to the 
flop.
Laplante led out for 125 only to see Rutter raise to 400. Laplante wasn't done with his hand yet; he re-raised to 725 and Rutter sent his own cards back to the dealer.
