Burcham Bounces Back
Level 27
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Action picked up on the flop of J♠7♥6♣ where the money quickly went in with Andrew Hilleren having Dan Burcham covered.
Dan Burcham: 5♣4♥ 
Andrew Hilleren: A♦A♥
Hilleren just needed his pocket aces to hold to take down the tournament, but Burcham had outs with an open-ended straight draw.
The 3♣ fell on the turn, completing the straight for Burcham, earning him the double up to retake the lead in the match.
The meaningless 2♠ landed on the river.
