Burns Rides the Roller-Coaster to a Huge Double

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
James Burns
James Burns

James Burns got his last 225,500 in on a {6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop after a raising war with Ron Ong, and Ong called to put Burns at risk for an over 500,000 chip pot.

James Burns: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Ron Ong: {j-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Burns had the lead with top set, but the {8-Clubs} turn gave Ong a flush and left Burns needing the board to pair in order to survive. The {3-Hearts} river gave Burns a full house, and he celebrated with a fist pump as he scooped in the massive pot.
