Buch Mucks

When we arrived at Shawn Buchanan's table, he and one opponent were already taking to a {9-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{a-Spades} flop and there was well over 1,500 in the pot. Buchanan's opponent was in the big blind position and checked over to Buchanan, who bet 800. With a call from the player, a {3-Diamonds} turn would see both players check.

The {10-Clubs} on the river would see Buchanan's opponent lead out for 1,600. Buchanan thought hard, eventually flicking out the call. He would regret it though, immediately mucking when his opponent turned over {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.
