Karp Draws First Blood

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

After losing a small pot to Ryan Franklin when Franklin flopped a set of threes, the two would battle again on the very next hand with Franklin opening, Karp shoving, and Franklin calling. Karp was in great shape for the double with {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} as Franklin was dominated with his {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

Franklin would pick up a straight draw when the flop and turn came {10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{J-Spades} but the river was the {J-Clubs} and Karp staved off elimination.
