Burland Gets His Set Paid Off

Joining the action on a flop, Jamie Burland had bet 9,000 from late position and saw Alain Fustin raise to 21,000 from two seats over. Burland, dressed impeccably in a shirt and tie, raised all in for 56,000. This all in bet sent Fustin into the tank for close to two minutes before he emerged with a call.

Burland turned over and Fustin must have thought they were on the river because he initially slammed his cards onto the felt face down towards the muck before retrieving them and flipping them over. Fustin's was not drawing dead, but it was drawing to just two outs. Those outs failed to materialise as the river was the and Burland doubled up.
