Buchman Eliminated; Rice Doubles

In a button-versus-big-blind raising war, Shawn Rice and Eric Buchman got it all in before the flop. Buchman had {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs}, and he ran them right into Rice's {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}. When the chips were counted down, Rice had his man covered by just 2,000 tiny chips, so Buchman was at risk as the cards were pulled in.

Board: {5-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}.

That's no help to Buchman, and he has been eliminated. That's a double up for Rice, on the other hand, and he has climbed up to about 460,000 here in the early going.
