Franco Doubles After Favorable Runout

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 15,000 ante
Sonny Franco
Sonny Franco

Sonny Franco raised to 220,000 from the cutoff and he was called by Isabel Baltazar from the button and big blind Najib Bennis.

The flop came down {4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} and Bennis instantly moved all in. Franco called for his tournament life, being covered by Bennis, and Baltazar got out of the way.

Sonny Franco: {Q-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Najib Bennis: {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The turn was the {2-Hearts} which gave Franco a total of seven outs. He needed to hit a five or a six and he did exactly that when the {5-Spades} river was dealt.

Franco scored a double up and is now back over the average stack.
