Frankenberger Doubles a Short Stack

Andy Frankenberger opened for 2,500 from the hijack and action folded to a short-stacked Gabriel Torres in the big blind. He looked down at his own stack and decided it was the moment to commit. Frankenberger asked for a count, which turned out to be 5,400 total, and then made the call.

Showdown
Frankenberger: {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Torres: {J-Hearts}{6-Clubs}

"Wow, you got it goodm" Frankeberger said after seeing they shared a six. The {J-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{7-Hearts} paired Torres, while the {K-Hearts} turn left Frankeberger drawing dead. "One of my favorite hands is 8-6," Frankenberger said after the {Q-Hearts} was put out on the river. "Not in that spot," he added.
