Another Double for Franco

Level 33 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Yaniv Peretz raised from the button to 525,000 and Sonny Franco three-bet to 1,725,000. That was reason enough for Peretz to move all in for effectively about 11,000,000. Franco called and they opened up.

Yaniv Peretz: {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Sonny Franco: {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

The board fell {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{5-Clubs} and Franco's kicker played and he doubled up.

Peretz Running Away With the Chip Lead

Level 33 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Most of the bigger pots are going to Yaniv Peretz. He now has a stack of 22,000,000 while Sonny Franco has only 6,000,000.

In the latest pot, Franco called a turn bet of 1,100,000 on the {3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{J-Spades} board and then a 2,400,000 bet on the {5-Spades} river. Peretz showed {Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and that was good enough to make Franco muck his hand.

Peretz Gets Lucky and Doubles

Level 33 : 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Sonny Franco raised from the button to 600,000 and big blind Yaniv Peretz moved all in for 9,250,000. Franco snap-called and immediately opened up {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}. Franco was in really good shape to take down the tournament as Peretz was playing {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}.

The flop came down {7-Spades}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Peretz gained four outs. The turn was the {J-Hearts} and Peretz needed a five or a six on the turn and the river was the {6-Hearts} to award Peretz with the lucky double-up.
