Paulius Plausinaitis Eliminated in 2nd Place (�108,000)
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Teun Mulder limped the button and Paulius Plausinaitis checked his option.
Both players checked the 9?8?5? flop before Plausinaitis led out for 60,000 on the 3? turn. Mulder then moved all in and Plausinaitis quickly called for 320,000.
Plausinaitis showed 10?9? for top pair, but Mulder had 5?3? for two pair. The river was the A? and Plausinaitis couldn't catch up, forcing him to settle for a runner-up finish as Mulder clinched the title.
After the hand, Plausinaitis asked Mulder what he had in the three-handed pot where he shoved the river. Mulder admitted he had king-ten for the straight and Plausinaitis said he folded a set of queens.
