Eric Buchman Is Eliminated in 10th Place ($35,861)

We saw some brutal hands as we played down to our final table and Eric Buchman was the victim of the last one of the night. After Adam Katz raised before the flop Buchman reraised and Katz called. The flop came {10-Clubs}

and after Katz bet Buchman raised. Katz reraised, Buchman announced he was raising and here things got a bit confusing. Katz actually put out more chips than he was supposed to, he wanted to keep reraising until Buchman was all in, but finally the pot was put right and Katz announced he was betting in the dark, which was enough to set Buchman all in.

The turn card was the {3-Clubs}

, which gave Katz, holding {Q-Clubs}

, a flush and beat the set of tens Buchman flopped. Eric needed the board to pair to stay alive and double up, but instead the river brought the {Q-Diamonds}

, which gave the hand to Katz and eliminated Buchman.

So that's it for tonight. Andy Bloch was a bit off with his prediction on how long it would take to establish our final table but we'll cut him some slack since he'll actually be AT the final table. Which will begin tomorrow at 2pm PST.
