Ausmus Applies Water to the Burn
Level 6
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Kahle Burns checked out of the big blind to Jeremy Ausmus in the cutoff on a flop of 7♥2♣8♣. Ausmus made a bet of 20,000 chips, which Burns then raised to 65,000.
On the 5♠ turn, Burns continued for 115,000 and Ausmus called. The J♦ river then slowed down Burns as he checked to Ausmus. Ausmus fired 200,000 chips and the action was back on Burns.
"I don't see how I can fold this," Burns stated. "Do you have two queens over there?"
He made the call and Ausmus indeed tabled Q♦Q♣ for pocket queens, winning the pot.
