Rollercoaster of an Orbit for Burden
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Steve Burden got it all in preflop for 11,800 on the button against the under-the-gun player who had him covered.
Steve Burden: A♣8♦ 
Opponent: Q♥2♥
The flop came A♦7♥6♦ with Burden still far in the lead. His opponent picked up a flush draw on the 8♥ turn, but the 3♦ river was a brick, earning Burden the double up.
A short while later, Burden found himself all in once again, this time from the big blind against Robert Van Syckle in the cutoff.
Steve Burden: A♦3♥
Robert Van Syckle: A♣A♥
The flop came 5♠4♣3♦, giving Burden some hope with outs to a trey as well as chop possibilities. However, the 9♣ turn and 6♣ river offered him no help and he was sent to the rail.
