Andrew Asher Eliminated in 2nd Place ($20,000)
Level 28
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Rick Burleson raised to 600,000 on the button and Andrew Asher called.
The flop came 3♣6♣7♠ and Burleson bet 500,000. Asher called, and the 4♠ fell on the turn.
Asher then moved all in for 5,200,000, and Burleson snap-called. Asher showed J♣9♣ for a flush draw, while Burleson had turned a straight with 7♦5♣.
The river 10♦ was no help to Asher, and he was eliminated in second place.
"Holy shit, what a day," Burleson, taking a deep sigh of relief, said as he tried on the championship bracelet for the first time.
