Funaro Sent Onto Second Bullet

Frank Funaro
Frank Funaro

In Level 5 with blinds of 400/800 and an ante of 100, Frank "FrankyFunk" Funaro raised to 1,760 on the button and Ryan "simlsgg" Hagerty three-bet to 7,520 in the small blind. Funaro four-bet jammed for 40,000 and Hagerty called all in for 4,000 shy of that number.

Ryan "simlsgg" Hagerty: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Frank "FrankyFunk" Funaro: {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}

Hagerty pulled ahead on the flop {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{a-Clubs} but still found himself with 11 outs to fade between Funaro's flush draw and two outs to a set of sixes. Three more outs were added to that tally on the turn {8-Diamonds}, but a safe river {j-Hearts} left Hagerty's aces best and earned him the double.

Funaro was left with just 4,000 and got it in on the following hand with {k-}{10-} against the {k-}{j-} of Alex "JinYang" Butcher, who held and scored the bounty as Funaro was eliminated from the tournament. However, Funaro's elimination did not last long as he quickly re-entered and found a seat at a new table with a fresh stack of 50,000.
