Lang Doubles Through Francoeur
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Jeremy Becker opened to 4,000 from early position before Louise Francoeur three-bet to 11,000 from middle position. In the cutoff, Michael Lang cold-called and Becker also came along.
Three ways to a A♠5♠4♣ flop, Becker checked to Francoeur who continued for 17,000. Lang quickly moved all-in for 55,000 while Becker folded, and Francoeur snapped it off.
Michael Lang: A♦K♣ 
Louise Francoeur: A♣Q♣
Both players flopped top pair but Lang's kicker was better. Nothing changed on the 6♥10♠ runout as Lang got the full double at the expense of Francoeur, who still keeps a healthy stack.
