Franklin Finds a Double with a Flopped Se
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
The action was picked up with Matthew Franklin all-in holding 9♠9♥, facing a call from Nicholas Rigby who tabled J♦8♥ on a 2♦9♣J♥ flop. Franklin had flopped middle set, leaving Rigby in rough shape with limited outs to score the knockout.
The A♥ turn and 5♦ river changed nothing, and Franklin secured the double-up to stay in the mix.
