Burke Scores Double Bustout
Level 15
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Level 11: Blinds 1.5k/3k/3k
The under-the-gun player open-shoved for around 30,000 and the middle-position player re-jammed for 94,000 and Tyler Burke went into the tank.
After just a few seconds, Burke made the call to put the other two at risk of elimination.
Under-the-gun: 9♥8♥
Middle position: A♦K♥
Tyler Burke: J♣J♥
Burke was already in the lead with his jacks, and the flop of J♦9♦8♠ vastly improved him to top set. The turn 10♦ gave him a sweat as the ace-king holder now had a diamond draw and gutter ball, but the river 8c] was neither and improved Burke to a full house. Burke then scooped in the large pot to boost him to over 200,000 while his opponents hit the rail.
