Zektser, Obst Chop a Big One Off Burnside
Level 31
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 0 ante
Three-handed on a flop of 9?A?2?, Kyle Burnside bet from under the gun and Igor Zektser raised on the button. James Obst called the raise, as did Burnside.
The turn came the Q? and Burnside bet again. Zektser called all in and Obst stuck around to see the 6? river, where Burnside and Obst both checked.
Zektser showed A?2?4?7? for the low, while Obst had A?8?6?4? for two pair, aces and sixes, to win the high. Burnside flashed A?J? before he mucked.
"Look at the size of this pot," Nick Kost observed as it took several minutes for the dealer to chop it up between Zektser and Obst.
