Franken Finishes Off Hira

Level 12 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On the tail end of a heads-up pot to the J♥4♠2♥8♠Q♦ river, Ashley Hira bet 15,000 for half of his stack. Michael Franken called and showed A♥5♥ for ace-high, having missed the wheel and nut flush draw. Hira sighed, exposed the 7♦5♣ and dropped to a short stack.

Hira then moved all-in blind without checking his cards. Franken called on the button, everyone else folded.

Ashley Hira: K♥J♥ All in
Michael Franken: 6♠6♦

Despite not having seen his cards and only flipping them over one by one for the showdown, it was best case scenario with a classic flip for Hira. He picked up a ton of outs until the Q♥9♦3♠8♦ turn but the 7♥ river was not among them.
