Shawn Buchanan - 11th Place
Shawn Buchanan - 11th Place
Shawn Buchanan came up just short of the final table in today's event. He checked a flop of {J-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {10-Hearts} to Greg Hurst, who bet 110,000. Buchanan raised all in for 20,000 more, and Hurst quickly called. He had a big draw, showing {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} {10-Spades} {9-Diamonds} for two pair with a straight draw and the nut flush draw. Buchanan opened {J-Spades} {10-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {6-Hearts} for a bigger two pair and smaller straight draw. The turn and river were both hearts, {8-Hearts} and {9-Hearts}, to make Hurst the nut flush. He chips up to 740,000 and eliminates Buchanan, who will collect $53,721.
