Burns Gets a Full Double
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Three players headed to a flop of 8♥7♠6♣ in a limped pot and the action checked around to the 3♠ on the turn. In what appeared to be an innocent-looking hand, quickly turned violent for two of the players. Kahle Burns and Artem Babakhanian each stuck in 55,000 apiece on the turn, leaving Burns with just 3,000 chips.
The A♥ completed the board and Burns checked to Babakhanian who slid out a bet. Burns called off his last 3,000 chips and Babakhanian turned over A♠Qx9♠5x for a nine-high straight. Burns showed the nuts with K♦10♥9♥8♠ and got a full double up.
