Planck Bluffs River (1C)

Written by Kyle | Sep 18, 2025 10:15:00 PM

The money bubble is approaching and Brett Planck is using his stack to apply pressure and accumulate chips.

On blinds of 2,000/4,000/4,000, Planck opened to 8,000 from the lojack. Timothy Brumley made the call from the small blind and players went heads up to the flop of 8♠8♦2♥.

Brumley quickly check-called Planck's 8,000 on the flop. Brumley checked the T♦ turn and called Planck's continuation of 15,000. The 9♥ completed the board and Brumley once again checked. Planck moved all in which frustrated Brumley.

Brumley asked if Planck really had an over pair and said that the flop was good for him. Planck responded by saying he thought Brumley had pocket sevens. Brumley folded and opened up his red sevens tossing them to the muck.

Planck disclosed he missed his flush draw with A♦5♦. Brumley is short and the pressure is building for him and a few others.

Eleven players remain and seven players will finish in the money. Four players will advance to Sunday's day two restart.

Planck: +39,000
Brumley: -31,000
