Buchanan Leveled

Shawn Buchanan raised to 8,000 from middle position before Gabe Walls reraised from the cutoff to 30,000 after asking Buchanan how much he is playing. Buchanan made the call, leaving himself with 97,000.

The flop came down {8-Spades} {6-Spades} {3-Clubs} and Buchanan checked. Walls wasted no time in firing out 45,000. It was now time for Buchanan to go into the tank. After a minute or so of thinking and playing with his chips, Buchanan reached back like he was going to ship it all into the middle. As soon as he did that, Walls ripped his headphones off his ears and sprung forward as if he was going to jump into the pot himself. Buchanan saw this and froze. He now was really stuck and confused about what to do.

"It was all going in, wow." said Buchanan. "Now you may make me fold the best hand... wow."

After another minute or so in the tank, Buchanan tabled {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} face up. Walls showed right back and tabled {A-?} {K-?}. "Sir, you just got leveled." said Walls.
