Raymer Gets Burns'ed
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Bill Burns had made it 3,000 to go preflop and was then raised to 7,500 by Greg 'Fossilman' Raymer to his left. When the action got back to Burns he tossed out calling chips and the two went to the flop of 10♠6♦A♠.
Burns checked, Raymer bet 4,000, Burns moved all in, and Raymer called to put him at risk.
Bill Burns: Q♠8♠
Greg Raymer: A♦Q♦
Raymer was in the lead with his top pair, but the turn 5♠ immediately gave Burns the flush to lock up the hand. The river was the meaningless 8♥ and the pot was pushed over to Burns for the double.
"Nice catch," Raymer scoffed as he watched Burns stack his new chips while he himself was left short.
