Andy Frankenberger

WPT Season 9 Player of the Year Andy Frankenberger opens for 2,000 from the cutoff and Gary Lucci calls from the button. Osman Soubra comes along from the small blind, Chris McClung does the same from the big, and four players watch the flop come down Spade 4Diamond 3Heart 9.

Two checks saw Frankenberger continue for 7,000, Lucci calls, and Soubra folds. McClung then springs to life with an all-in check-raise to right around 20,000 and Frankenberger isolates by moving all in over the top.

Frankenberger: Diamond 9Diamond A
McClung: Heart 5Diamond 6

Frankenberger is best with nines, but McClung is drawing live to an open-ended straight draw. Much to Frankenberger’s delight, he held as the Heart 4 hit the turn followed by the Heart J on the river.

Andy Frankenberger – 95,000 (118 bbs)
Chris McClung – Eliminated
