Thorel Tackled by Burns

Level 18 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel
Jean-Noel Thorel

Jean-Noel Thorel raised to 250,000 from under the gun and Kahle Burns three-bet to 775,000 in the hijack. Action folded back to Thorel who made the call without much hesitation.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{a-Spades}{j-Spades}, Thorel checked, Burns bet 450,000, Thorel snap-shoved and Burns insta-called with the bigger stack.

Jean-Noel Thorel: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Kahle Burns: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

They had both hit top pair but Burns was ahead with the king-kicker.

The rest of the board was completed with the {8-Diamonds} on the turn and the {8-Spades} on the river for Burns to stay ahead and eliminate Thorel.
