Buck Downed by Lakhov

Level 20 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Alexander Lakhov
Alexander Lakhov

Dana Buck started things off with a cutoff open to 4,500. Lakhov was the only player who showed any interest, raising it up to 17,000. With the action back on Buck, he four-bet to 104,000 and was snap-called by Lakhov.

Alexander Lakhov {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Dana Buck {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}

Buck was the one who's tournament life was on the line and he needed some help to stay in the game.

The {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds} flop showed an ace in the window but it also made a set for Lakhov. On to the {j-Hearts} turn and there was a little hope as it gave Buck two pair and there were two aces that could save him.

Unfortunately, the {8-Clubs} river was not what he needed and Buck had to make his way to the exit in 5th place. That leaves four players remaining.
