Marafioti Drags One; Frankenberger Busto
Level 5
: 200/400, 50 ante
A player in the small blind bet 1,125 on a board of 
, and Matt Marafioti raised to 3,850 in the cutoff. His opponent called, and the two saw a 
fall. The small blind got aggressive again with 4,325, and Marafioti cut out his chips and tanked for a couple of minutes before dropping in a hefty raise: 16,800. The small blind took an equally long time before letting his hand go.
At a nearby table, we saw Andy Frankenberger walking away. When we inquired as to his fate, the player formerly on his left said Frankenberger had flopped a set of fives, only to have an opponent turn a set of eights, at which point the two got it all in for Frankenberger's stack. Meanwhile, Calvin Anderson is down to 13,000 at the same table.
