Burstein's Ace-King No Good

Level 9 : 300/600, 100 ante
Vladimir Burstein
Vladimir Burstein

The player in mid-position raised and action folded to Vladimir Burstein in the small blind who shoved. The player in the big blind also shoved with the shorter stack. The initial raiser snap-called.

Big blind: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Mid-position: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Vladimir Burstein: {A-Clubs}{k-Spades}

The board ran out {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Spades} for the queens to hold and triple up. After losing this hand, Burstein was left with about 2,900, which he doubled up a few hands later.
