Franco Goes Runner-Runner to Crack Aces
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
After a series of raises and re-raises Sonny Franco found himself all in and in big trouble vs Ihar Soika who woke up with aces in the big blind.
Sonny Franco: K?J? 
Ihar Soika: A?A?
The flop didn't give Franco very much as it came 5?3?Q? as he could only survive with running cards. The turn completed part one of that unlikely process as the J? came off and the river was a dramatic K? to give Franco runner-runner two pair and crack the aces to stay alive.
