Burke Makes Massive Call to Double
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
On a heads-up flop of 
, Chris Burke was first to act and he put out a bet of 325,000, but then Joshua Reichard put out a stack of yellow- 100,000 chips for a total bet of 1.8 million, covering Burke.
Burke then went into the tank for a long while, shaking his head and counting his chips several times. He then suddenly put his chips in the middle, much to the table's surprise. The cards were then tabled, with Burke at risk.
Chris Burke: 
Joshua Reichard: 
The board ran out 
for Burke to win the massive pot with a single pair of eights.
