Ping Liu raises to 4,500 in the hijack and Ryan Laplante (pictured above) three-bets next to act in the cutoff to 14,000. With the action on Shannon Shorr (pictured below) on the button, he makes it 32,000 to go.

The blinds fold, as does Liu, and Laplante responds by moving all in for 117,500. Shorr quickly calls.
