Burns Gets Action With a Straight

Level 17 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Bryn Kenney raised to 135,000 from the hijack with {j-Hearts}{10-Spades} and Kahle Burns flatted on the button with {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Aaron van Blarcum came along, calling with {8-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} from the big blind.

The {3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop gave Burns a huge draw and he was the only player to call Kenney's 165,000-bet.

The {4-Clubs} brought a straight for Burns. Kenney checked and Burns checked back.

The {q-Clubs} completed the board and Kenney tried one last attempt at taking the pot, firing 645,000. Unfortunately for him, there was no way he could force Burns out from his nutted hand. Burns raised to 2.1 million and Kenney quickly mucked.

Van Blarcum Doubles Through Burns

Level 18 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Kahle Burns has been on a heater, getting dealt premium hands almost nonstop. He found {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} on the button and raised to 175,000. Short-stacked Sam Grafton folded from the small blind but Aaron van Blarcum peeled {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} in the big blind and he three-bet shoved for 1,030,000. The coin flip went van Blarcum's hand as the board came out {6-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

Van Blarcum moved to the second place while Burns remained a commanding chip leader even though he'd lost 13 bigs in the aforementioned encounter.
