Burns Triples Up

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

The player in middle position raised to 300 and was called by Richard Burns on the button and the big blind.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{10-Spades}

Big blind shoved for about 7,000 and was called by the player in middle position and Burns.

Burns: {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}
Big blind: {A-Spades}{9-Spades}
Middle position: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Burns flopped the nut straight, against the middle position's lower straight, while the big blind held the nut flush draw.

The turn card was the {7-Hearts} and the river was a {10-Clubs}.

Burns scooped the pot to triple through and rank amongst the early chip leaders.
