Shawn Buchanan Takes a Hit

Action folded around to Shawn Buchanan on the button and he raised to 700. Both blinds called and the three players took a flop of {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {9-Spades}. The small blind checked and the big blind pushed all in for 5,125. Buchanan made the call and the small blind passed. The players showed:

Buchanan: {A-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}
Opponent: {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}

Buchanan needed runner runner that never came. After the hand, he slips to approximately 4,000 chips.
