Burkholder Boosts Stack

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

The board read {8-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{q-Spades} when we arrived at Steven "PiKappRaider" Burkholder's table. He was heads up with an opponent who checked, and Burkholder tossed out 2,100. His opponent check-raised to 6,000, and Burkholder tank-called.

Burkholder's opponent mucked, and Burkholder opened up {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for top two pair.
