Fragoso Advances with Flopped Boat
Action was picked up after the hand, but Francisco Fragoso was kind enough to recount what had happened.
Preflop, Jesse Kertland led into him for 5,000, before Fragoso raised to 20,000. His opponent called.
The flop was checked through, as was the turn. On the river, Fragoso fired for 47,000. Kertland moved all in, and Fragoso called.
Jesse Kertland:
Francisco Fragoso:
Fragoso's boat had filled up on the flop, sending his opponent to the rail. Both players and the dealer seemed to believe that it was actually Kertland who had Fragoso covered, but after a quick count of both stacks, it became clear that Fragoso was already the big stack, and subsequently, had won the table and punched his ticket to Day 2. Fragoso will at least take home the minimum cash of $5,835.
