Warburton Spikes the River to Bust Raffoul

Level 6 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Edgard Raffoul bet 4,800 on a flop of {j-Hearts}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts} and was called by Boris Kolev in the cutoff. Steven Warburton, on the button, then raised to 17,500 and only Raffoul called.

The turn came the {7-Clubs} and Raffoul checked over to Warburton, who announced he was all in. Raffoul tanked for several minutes, counting down his stack and resting his head on the rail before splashing his last 40,000 in the middle.

Warburton turned over {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a pair of sevens to go with straight and flush draws, while Raffoul had {a-Spades}{j-Clubs} and needed to hold on to survive.

The river came the {9-Diamonds}, improving Warburton to two pair, and Raffoul could only shrug before making a swift exit from the tournament area.
