Hey, It's Frankland

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Matthew Frankland has busted two players in simultaneous hands. During the first, Frankland had his opponent at risk preflop. Frankland's {6-Hearts}{6-Spades} held against his opponent's {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} as the board ran {q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}, and Frankland's stack increased to about 1.15 million chips.

In the very next hand, Frankland called a raise from an opponent preflop, and all the money went in after the flop fell {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. Frankland's {a-Spades}{3-Spades} had snatched the lead from his opponent's {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}, and the turn and river bricked {7-Hearts}, {j-Clubs} respectively.

Frankland now commands one of the biggest stacks in the room with about 1.45 million chips to his name.
