No Bueno

Omaha -

We catch up with this hand on the flop. The board shows {4-Spades} {6-Spades} {K-Clubs}, and there appears to be 22,000 chips already in the middle.

Action is on Henning Granstad, and he leads out with a bet of 9,000. Patrick Bueno calls all in for his last 2,200. It comes back around to the button, where Allen Cunningham is waiting. He raises the pot, making it 51,200 total. That's enough to push Granstad out, and get Cunningham heads up with the at-risk player. The cards are turned over:

Bueno: {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {6-Clubs} {2-Clubs}
Cunningham: {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {10-Spades}

Cunningham is ahead, and he locks up the hand when the turn and river come {7-Spades}, {8-Spades}.

After losing that pot, Bueno is eliminated from the tournament in 28th place. With 27 players left, the remaining tables have been combined, and seats have been re-drawn.
