Plausinaitis Cracks Top Set to Double

Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

With around 30,000 in the pot on a flop of 8?9?Q?, Masato Kashiwabara bet 7,000 from the cutoff and Paulius Plausinaitis called under the gun.
The turn was the 10? and Kashiwabara bet 20,000. Plausinaitis then moved all in for 45,500 and Kashiwabara called with Q?Q? for top set.
Plausinaitis, though, had A?J? for a straight and held on through the 6? river to double up.9
