Silva Gets Lucky; Franklin Crippled

Ryan Franklin raised to 27,000, only for Joao Silva to move all in from the button. Back around to Franklin, who called.

Silva: {J-Diamonds} {9-Hearts}
Franklin: looking good with {10-Diamonds} {10-Clubs}

Oh dear.

Board: {9-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {J-Hearts} {6-Spades} {6-Diamonds}

Silva thus enjoyed a miraculous double up to 430,000, while Franklin languished on 100,000 or so. He raised to 43,000 next hand and everyone folded, bumping his stack up to 130,000, but he's still in trouble.
