Franco Finds A Split
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
In the cutoff, Aleksandr Chernikov opened. But in the small blind, Sonny Franco counted his stack before going all in for 450,000 chips. Chernikov called.
Sonny Franco: A♥9♥
Aleksandr Chernikov: A♣Q♦
Far behind, Franco had very few outs after the flop K♦7♠K♣. But the 8♠ came on the turn and the 8♣ on the river to complete two pairs on the board, splitting the pot between the two players.
