Burgin Gets There
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Action went four-ways to a flop of Q♥4♥8♦ with over 12,000 in the middle. It checked to Stephen Burgin in early position, who bet 4,500, and the player in the cutoff moved all in for 7,100. Only Burgin called.
Cutoff: A♠Q♣
Stephen Burgin: 7♥5♥
The cutoff was in good shape to double up with top pair, top kicker, but Burgin still had outs with a flush draw and a gutshot.
The K♦ turn was a blank, but the A♥ river gave Burgin the flush to send his opponent packing.
