Burleson Punishes the Limpers
Level 27
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Andrew Asher limped in on the button. "Are you going to raise?" Jeff Heiberg asked Rick Burleson.
"I haven't looked at my hand yet," Burleson replied.
"Go ahead and look," Heiberg added as he also called in the small blind.
"Yes," Burleson said, raising to 600,000 as both opponents called.
The flop came A♣7♦Q♥ and Burleson bet 400,000. Only Heiberg called.
The J♥ fell on the turn and Burleson only had to reach for chips before Heiberg folded.
