Early Rush for Burns
On a flop of 
, Kahle Burns check-raised a bet of 18,000 by Jan-Eric Schwippert to 54,000 and the German called to see the 
turn. Both players checked and did so again on the 
river to see Burns rake in the pot with 
for aces and fives.
Schwippert then raised to 26,000 and Burns three-bet out of the small blind to 104,000 in order to force a fold.
Schwippert's next raise to 26,000 saw Michael Lim call in the cutoff and Burns three-bet the button to 102,000, claiming the pot uncontested.
Burns got to taste some of his own medicine against Mustapha Kanit when the latter check-raised the 
flop from 36,000 to 118,000 and let go before Burns raised to 27,000 and was called by Schwippert in the big blind. Both players checked the 
flop and a bet of 51,000 on the 
turn to claim the next pot.
