Franco Doubles Through Chernikov
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Aleksandr Chernikov opened from the hijack, then Sonny Franco in the cutoff three-bet with almost all of his stack of 400,000 chips. Chernikov re-raised to force him to go all in. Franco waited a few seconds to see if there was an elimination at the other table, and he eventually called.
Sonny Franco: A♥10♦
Aleksandr Chernikov: A♦Q♦
Once again, Franco was on the edge of elimination against Chernikov. But once more, he was lucky enough to hit a flush on the river on 6♥9♥4♦K♥Q♥ to double up.
