Frakes Triples Up
Jon Van Fleet opened to 600,000 from middle position, getting a call from John Ciccarelli on the button. Stephen Frakes moved all in for 1,350,000 from the big blind. Van Fleet four bet to 2,900,000, and Ciccarelli called, creating side pot action.
On the 
flop, Van Fleet continued for 1,500,000. Ciccarelli raised to 4,800,000, and Van Fleet made the call.
The 
turn was checked before Van Fleet moved all in on the 
river, for around 8,000,000. Ciccarelli went into the tank, before eventually making the reluctant laydown.
Stephen Frakes: 
Jon Van Fleet: 
Frakes' sixes were still good to take down the main pot to triple his stack, while Van Fleet raked in the side pot, while Ciccarelli was in disbelief that he had let Van Fleet bluff him off of the better hand.
