Hand #38 - Buchman Strikes Again

James Akenhead has the button. Under the gun, Steve Begleiter opens the pot to 800,000. Next door, his neighbor Eric Buchman begins stacking out a re-raise. He slides out 3,000,000 of his chips, and the table folds back to the original raiser. Begleiter sits statue-still for a few moments, resting his chin on his hands. He finally makes a move to reach out and fold his cards, and Buchman picks up another pot.

He's been easily the most active player so far, and his stack has benefitted to the tune of 40,630,000 chips.
