Franchi Spikes a King to Double
Level 29
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Enrico Camosci raised to 200,000 from the cutoff. Malcolm Franchi three-bet to 700,000 from the small blind with around 500,000 behind. Then, Markkos Ladev four-bet to 1,200,000 out of the small blind. Camosci folded but Franchi put the remainder of his stack across the line.
Malcolm Franchi: K♥J♥ 
Markkos Ladev: 10♥10♦
The flop of 8♠K♦6♠ put Franchi ahead with a pair of kings. The A♣ turn and 7♠ didn't improve Ladev, and he had to send almost half of his chips over to Franchi.
