Shawn Buchanan Eliminated in 20th Place ($8,098)

Level 19
Shawn Buchanan - 20th place
Shawn Buchanan - 20th place

2-7 Triple Draw

When we picked up the action after the second draw as Shawn Buchanan was already all in. He was up against Michele Limongi and Mayu Roca Uribe, and each of them took one card on the second pull. Limongi bet and was called by Uribe. Buchanan still needed one card while the others stood pat. The action repeated with Uribe calling one last bet.

Buchanan was drawing to an eight, but he pulled a pair to make {2-}{2-}{8-}{4-}{3-}, and he knew that was that. Limongi's {8-}{7-}{5-}{4-}{3-} was good for the win and the knockout, pushing the Italian up to 290,000.
