Buchman Flushes Schneider

Eric Buchman raised from the small blind when action folded to him and Tom Schneider called from the big bling. The flop came down {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and Buchman fired a bet. Schneider made the call.

The turn brought the {7-Spades} and Buchman bet. Schneider called once again. The river then completed the board with the {2-Diamonds}. Buchman bet again and Schneider was right there to make the call.

Buchman tabled a king-high flush with the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and scooped the pot to move to 30,200 in chips. Schneider dropped to 20,000.

Last night, Buchman won his first bracelet in Event No. 18: $2,000 Limit Hold'em after beating Brent Courson heads up. Buchman's been a solid tournament player for some time now, but adding a bracelet to his resume surely cements his place in poker history.
