Aces Are Good for Burleson

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Rick Burleson
Rick Burleson

A player from early position raised to 3,000 and Rick Burleson three-bet to 8,500 a few seats over.

Action folded back around to the initial raiser who called and the dealer dropped a {k-}{j-}{j-} flop. The initial raiser check-jammed for 26,000 after Burleson continued and Burleson called having his opponent slightly covered.

Rick Burleson: {a-}{a-}
Opponent: {q-}{q-}

Both players held made hands but Burleson's was better and neither the {8-} turn nor the {7-} river changed a thing.
