Casagrande Frazzles Francort
Level 11
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Nino Pansier opened to 14,000 from early position, before Javier Francort produced a three-bet to 56,000 from the next seat. Harald Casagrande cold-called in the cutoff, and Pansier got out of the way.
On the K♠Q♣6♦ flop, Francort fired out a bet of 130,000, and called off for his 260,000 total stack when Casagrande raised pot.
Javier Francort: A♦A♠K♥3♠ 
Harald Casagrande: K♣10♣J♠6♠
Francort had rockets, but Casagrande had hit the front with two pair, kings and sixes.
Much to his disgust, Francort could not avoid his fate on the 8♦ turn or 4♦ river, Casagrande giving the table an understated tap in celebration when he realized he had held.
