Tom Franklin Doubles Up

Captain Tom Franklin had the kind of restart he was hoping for when he doubled up first hand after the break. He had to do it the hard way too, as his {K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} was way behind his opponent's {K-Spades}{J-Spades}. However a flop of {4-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} put him in front, the {7-Diamonds} on the turn kept him there and the {2-Spades} on the river meant it was all smooth sailing for the Captain.
