Tomeny Cracks Burns' Jacks to Take the Lead
Level 29
: Blinds 400,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Kahle Burns raised to 1,600,000 from under the gun and was three-bet to 4,000,000 by Michael Tomeny in the big blind. Burns thought a bit and decided to call.
Tomeny shoved for 16,800,000 on the 9♣9♠2♦ flop and Burns tanked a bit before calling to put Tomeny at risk.
Michael Tomeny: A♣K♠
Kahle Burns: J♥J♣
Burns was well ahead with his jacks and remained ahead on the 8♦ turn; however, the K♥ showed up on the river — pairing Tomeny's king on the end to award him a massive double up and take over the chip lead.
