Christopher Burleson raised all in from the cutoff for 745,000, and Jose Gutierrez flicked in a chip to make the call in the big blind.
Christopher Burleson: Q♦10♠
Jose Gutierrez: A♠10♣
The flop brought great news for Burleson with Q♣9♣5♥ pairing his queen, leaving Gutierrez looking for running broadway cards to eliminate Burleson.
With a turn card of the 2♦ Gutierrez needed an ace to improve to claim Burleson’s bounty.
No help came for Gutierrez as the river card showed a 6♣. It was a sigh of relief for Burleson as he doubled through.
