Burford Nearing 200,000
Mark Burford opened to 5,000 from early position and received a call from a player in middle position. Mykel Comroe also called from the cutoff, as did the players on the button and in both blinds. The flop came and all six players checked.
The turn fell and the small blind led out with a bet of 5,000. the big blind folded and Burford and the middle-position player both called. Comroe and the player on the button then proceeded to fold, taking action three ways to the final card.
The river was and all three players checked to take the hand to showdown.
"I missed," said the small blind, tabling . Burford then showed for a pair of queens and the final player in the hand mucked, earning him the pot and sending his stack to what appears to be around 187,000 in chips.
