Ryan Laplante is Spinning it Up
On a board reading 
, with about 60,000 in the pot already, Mukul Pahuja led out for 26,000 from under the gun.
Ryan Laplante was on the button and immediately counted out chips potentially to match Pahuja's bet. He neatly stacked up the rest of his chips and went into the tank. Laplante was clearly weighing his options, and appeared to be fairly animated as he was making his decision. Eventually, he slid a tower forward into the middle to call.
Pahuja tabled 
, and Laplante flipped over 
for a flush to scoop the pot.
Laplante and his partner Sam Cohen started the day with just 21,400 chips and they have multiplied that by almost seven times by now. Meanwhile Pahuja started the day with partner Jonas Wexler and has lost almost half of his stack.
