Burns Rides the Roller-Coaster to a Huge Double
Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
James Burns got his last 225,500 in on a 
flop after a raising war with Ron Ong, and Ong called to put Burns at risk for an over 500,000 chip pot.
James Burns: 
Ron Ong: 
Burns had the lead with top set, but the 
turn gave Ong a flush and left Burns needing the board to pair in order to survive. The 
river gave Burns a full house, and he celebrated with a fist pump as he scooped in the massive pot.
