Franco A Eliminated in 12th Place ($10,000)

Level 32 : 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Franco A
Franco A

Franco A limped in from under the gun and action folded around to the blinds. Raphael Duval limped in from the small blind and Debra Ann Holman checked her option in the big blind.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and both blinds checked to Franco. He put out a bet worth 800,000 and action was back on Duval. After a moment of thought, the chip leader put in a check-raise to 2,200,000. Holman was staring off into space, not realizing it was her turn, but eventually folded after about a minute. Franco moved all-in for 6,500,000 and Duval snap-called.

Franco was at risk with {k-Hearts}{j-Spades} for a pair of jacks, up against Duval's {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for both a flush and a straight draw. The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and the river was the {7-Clubs}, giving Duval a flush to eliminate Franco in 12th place.

Franco stood up, visibly frustrated, and said "I'd rather lose a hand like that to someone like him" as he pointed to Spencer Jean-Baptiste.
