Kris Burchfield opens to 80k under the gun and Matt Newcombe three-bet jams on his direct left. Action folds back to Burchfield, who asks how much Newcombe is playing.

Newcombe tells Burchfield it’s about 15 big blinds as the dealer counts out 570,000, and Burchfield thinks for a bit before dropping in calling chips.

Newcombe has Burchfield dominated going to the flop, where Burchfield picks up the nut flush draw and adds eight extra outs. The turn is a safe one for Newcombe, but he can’t fade the river and is eliminated in 49th as a result.
