Burford Gone In 9th Place ($14,149)
A short-stacked Mark Burford raised and faced a re-raise from Georgios Kapalas. With nearly half of his remaining stack already in the pot, Burford re-raised his last 3,000 in and saw what appeared to be good news when Kapalas called.
Kapalas held A4 and was trailing Burford’s AK.
The flop made it interesting, coming 25Q. The 6 turn didn’t help, but the river was disgusting for Murford. The 3 hit, giving Kapalas a straight and eliminating Burford in 9th place.
