James Burns Eliminates Jesse Sylvia In Huge Cooler
Jul 18, '17
Jesse Sylvia was enjoying a good start to this tournament with more than his starting stack when he ran into a huge cooler courtesy of James Burns.
On a flop of 854, Sylvia and Burns got into a series of bets and raises that ultimately resulted in two all-ins. Sylvia held 88 for top set, but Burns had flopped a straight with 76.
The turn and river came 26 and Sylvia failed to pair the board. The stacks were counted down, and Burns had Sylvia covered by about 5,000 or so. Sylvia will now have to re-enter, and Burns is up to 87,000.
