Frankland-based Success

Matthew Frankland, although a relatively new arrival on the UK's (and Europe's) live tournament circuit already has winnings of over £75,000 and just doubled through here at the Pokerstars.net EPT Vienna to keep himself in the running for some more.
I caught this hand from the turn - he was heads up vs. Victorino Torres on a 
board and Torres had checked to him. He made a bet of 8,100, and after a brief pause, Torres made the call. The river brought the 
- a third diamond - and an immediate shove from Torres, who had Frankland covered. There was little hesitation from Frankland who pushed the rest of his chips in and showed 
vs. Torres' 
. No scare card was going to budge Frankland at this point, and as he stacked his new 40k or so two other players started talking to him in what sounded suspiciously like other British accents (therefore pretty much excluding the rest of the table from their deliberations). Still, good to see a bit of chat going - this tournament has been unusually low on multilingual banter.
