I have found that you need to let it naturally dry first, (in the sun or garage with a fan on it), till it turns tan/light brown naturally. What is happening is there is so much moisture in the green bamboo, all you are doing is evaporating moisture first, before it will burn. Give it some time to dry, then try. Same is true with flaming treated lumber.
