Buckner Scores Double Elimination
Nível 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The PokerNews team was called over to a table after the fact to hear a hand that had just happened.
A short-stacked player in early position moved all in for 45,000 and Robbi Jade Lew moved all in over the top for 82,000 next to act. It folded over to Steven Buckner in the cutoff who made the call to put both players at risk. The rest of the table got out of the way and the cards were shown.
Early Position: A♦9♦
Robbi Jade Lew: A♠K♦
Steven Buckner: A♣Q♥
Lew was in great shape preflop with the better kicker, but when the board ran out 8♦6♥3♣Q♠6♣, it was the turned queen that hit to score Buckner the pot and send two players to the rail.
