Another Hit for Buffington

We've seen Blake Buffington pay off several large river bets today. It's impressive not only that he's still in the tournament, but that he has a roughly average-sized stack.

Buffington was the pre-flop aggressor and the player in position for a flop of {Q-Spades} {4-Hearts} {9-Spades}. After Daniel Clemente checked, Buffington bet 45,000. Clemente check-raised that bet to 110,000.

"How much do you have?" Buffington asked.

"About 600 more," Clemente replied. Buffington then called.

Both players checked the {6-Spades} turn. When the river paired the board {9-Hearts}, Clemente bet 150,000. Buffington didn't look happy but tossed in calling chips anyway.

"I have the worst full house," said Clemente, turning over {4-Diamonds} {4-Spades} for fours full of nines. Buffington mucked.

New counts:

Buffington - 330,000
Clemente - 910,000
