Burford's Due To Get a Double
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 0 ante
A player opened to 15,000 in middle position, and David Butkus called on the button. Mark Burford three-bet shoved for 43,500 from the small blind, and the opener four-bet enough to put Butkus in for his last 120,000. Butkus folded.
Mark Burford: 
Opponent: 
Burford spiked a set on the 
flop, and held after the 
turn and 
river improved him to a full house to earn the double.
"I had to get lucky sometime!" a smiling Burford told the table.
