Tran Busts Burkholder
Daniel Negreanu raised to 4,400 from the cutoff seat after play folded over to him. A few spots over from that, Steven Burkholder sat in the small blind. He reraised all in for 49,000. Kwinsee Tran was in the big blind and requested a count on Burkholder's shove amount. The dealer broke it down and informed him. Tran then made the call and Negreanu folded.
Tran:
Burkholder:
Upon seeing the hands, negreanu piped up and said, "Well, I had him beat," pointing to Burkholder's hand with a smile.
Tran flopped the joint when it came , giving him a full house. Burkholder was packing up when the dealer dealt the on the turn and the on the river.
David Peters turned to Burkholder and said, "Look, you made the straight!" Although he meant it completely innocently, it may not have been the best thing to say to someone who was already out the door having been flopped nearly stone dead.
"Sick," said Burkholder as he made his way to the exit.
Tran scooped the chips and moved to 275,000 in chips. That's looks like it's good enough for the top stack in the room.
