Burris Rivers a Straight
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Nick Burris jammed a stack of 96,000 from the cutoff and got a call from a bigger-stacked player in the small blind.
Nick Burris: K♣5♣ 
Small Blind: J♥J♠
Burris had been caught with his hand in the cookie jar and had run into a strong holding. The flop of 8♥4♣9♥ didn't change much, but the 6♥ turn gave him some additional outs with a gutshot.
Those outs were working as the 7♠ river gave him a straight to put a tough beat on his stoic opponent.
