Hoenig Doubles, Rodriguez Eliminated
Rafael Rodriguez was all in for his last 10,000 in the big blind and Ryan Hoenig limped in from early position. Christopher Frank raised to 45,000 in the cutoff and Hoenig called to create a side pot.
The flop came Q♣8♣4♦ and Hoenig check-called a bet of 40,000 from Frank. The 7♦ landed on the turn and Hoenig checked again. Frank splashed in a bet of 115,000 and Hoenig check-raised all in for 515,000. Frank made the call and a massive crowd gathered to sweat the two all-ins.
Rafael Rodriguez: K♦7♣4♥3♠
Ryan Hoenig: Q♠Q♥J♥8♥
Christopher Frank: Q♦J♣10♦9♣
Hoenig had a set of queens which left Rodriguez already drawing dead. However, Frank had two flush draws and a wrap for a straight. The river was the 7♥ which gave Hoenig the best full house and he doubled through Frank.
