Kings for Shephard
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
David Burke made it 2,400 from middle position before Hank Shephard responded with a jam for 30,500 on the button. Burke made the call, and the cards were on their backs, with Shephard at risk.
Hank Shephard: K♣K♥
David Burke: K♣10♥
Shephard had Burke crushed as they went to a runout.
Shephard stayed ahead on the flop, but the flop did give Burke a gutshot straight draw when it came 6♦Q♥A♥.
The jack never came on the 8♣ turn or the 6♠ river as Shephard doubled.
