Banks Doubles Through Cortorillo

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante
Gary Banks
Gary Banks

Gary Banks was all-in for 495,000 from the mid-position and was at risk as he was called by Francesco Cortorillo in the cutoff with the bigger stack.

Gary Banks: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Francesco Cortorillo: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The flop came {8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} for Banks to flop the flush draw but keep Cortorillo ahead.

The turn was the {10-Spades} which didn't really change the situation.

The river completed the board with the {q-Diamonds} which gave Banks the flush indeed to double up.
