Bursavich Rockets Up Counts, Busts Mintz

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante
Ben Mintz called it off with 77 but couldn't catch up to KK.
Ben Mintz called it off with 77 but couldn't catch up to KK.

Frank Bravata bet 12,000 on the turn with the board reading {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}, and Austin Bursavich pushed all in. Bravata called immediately.

Bravata: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}
Bursavich: {a-Spades}{2-Spades}

Unfortunately for Bravata, he was in awful shape against Bursavich's flopped trips, and the {4-Diamonds} river wasn't the card he needed to catch up. He was forced to send another 7,350 to his opponent.

The very next hand, Bursavich opened for 800, and Ben Mintz three-bet to 2,225 from his immediate left. Action folded back to Bursavich, and he tossed out two gray T5,000 chips. Mintz moved all in for about that amount, and Bursavich immediately turned over {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}. Mintz showed {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, and he found no help on the flop, turn, or river. He wished the remaining players good luck before exiting the tournament area.
