Plausinaitis Runs Into Aces; Down to Two Tables
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Paulius Plausinaitis opened to 18,000 from the button and called a three-bet from Artsiom Lasouski to 42,000 out of the small blind.
The flop was K?10?2? and both Lasouski and Plausinaitis put in 55,000.
Lasouski then checked the Q? turn to his opponent who moved all in for 131,000. Lasouski quickly called.
Paulius Plausinaitis: K?J? 
Artsiom Lasouski: A?A?
Plausiaitis had flopped top pair and turned an open-ended straight draw, but was behind to the pocket aces of his opponent. The river was the Q? and Plausinaitis was eliminated.
The remaining players are now seated around just two tables.
