Burns Five-Bet Bluffs His Way into the Lead
Level 26
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Steven Zhou opened to 240,000 on the button with 10♥9♣ and was three-bet to 875,000 by Kahle Burns in the small blind holding K♦2♦.
Just behind him, Romain Morvan made it 1,600,000 to go from the big blind with A♦Q♠, which got a quick fold from Zhou, but a five-bet of 2,300,000 from Burns after weighing his options.
Morvan didn't take long to lay his hand down and Burns took down the pot without showing.
