Cantatore Takes a Slither Out of Fransson's Massive Stack
Level 11
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Pia Fransson bet 3,000 from the small blind and Giovanni Cantatore called in the big blind.
The flop of 9?7?5? saw Fransson continue for 3,000, but the Italian raised to 6,000 and was called by the Swede.
Cantatore bet 6,000 on the turn when the 7? paired the board and was called by Fransson. Both players checked the 8? river and Canatore tabled 10?9? for two pair to take the pot.
It was a minor inconvenience for Fransson who has been at the top of the chips standings for most of the day. Fransson had a deep run last year in the FPS Main Event at Aix En Provence and will be hoping her stack will propel her to her biggest ever score.
