James Burgoine hopes to run deep

James Burgoine raised with a short stack to 5,000. One player called--Michael Goldberg. The flop came {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{7-Spades}

{3-Spades}

and Goldberg checked. Burgoine thought for a moment and then moved all in for 27,200. Goldberg thought and said, "I call. I'm drawing, though."

This was somewhat good news for Burgoine, as he had a better draw: {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Spades}

for Burgoine and {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{10-Spades}

for Goldberg. The turn was the {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

and gave Burgoine the better flush. The river was the {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

and Burgoine showed some rare emotion, smiling as he raked in the chips.
