Freeroll Flop for Tony Burns

Level 4 : 75/150, 25 ante

Tony Burns

After an opening raise from under the gun to 500 and a call from one player in middle position, Tony Burns decided to three-bet from the big blind, making it 1,575. The player under the gun called before the player in middle position moved all in for around 7,700. Action was back on Burns and he thought for a bit before deciding to shove all in over the top with a stacked covering both of his opponents. The UTG raiser quickly folded, so it was off to a showdown.

Tony Burns: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Opponent: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

The flop came down {J-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} meaning that only Burns could win the hand outright.

"Freeroll," Burns said smiling.

But his free ride ended quickly when the {K-Diamonds} dropped on the turn. The {6-Clubs} came on the river ensuring a split pot, and Burns and his opponent chopped up the chips from the original raiser.
