Steve "Cuz" Buckner went multi-way to the flop after raising to 1,600 preflop.
"This is no fold'em hold'em," Buckner said, as the flop came 7♦K♥6♠.
Buckner fired out a bet of 6,000 and when his opponents quickly got out of the way, he tabled A♦A♣ as he dragged in the pot.

Under the gun raised to 600 which saw three calls from the cutoff and button and Jon Maghanoy in the big blind.
The flop came A♣6♦J♣ and Maghanoy bet out for around half the pot to 1,100. Under the gun folded, but the raise got a call from the cutoff and button.
The three players saw a 4♠ turn, and Maghanoy lead again for 5,400, getting another call from the cutoff, but the button gave up and folded.
The river came the 2♥ and both players checked to showdown.
Jon Maghanoy showed J♠8♣ for a pair of jacks, winning the pot and the opposition showed his hand only to the big blind before mucking.

Scott Seiver won his fifth World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet last night and in doing so may have secured his place in the Poker Hall of Fame when he becomes eligible next year.
Seiver, a longtime pro from New York who poker fans may remember from his appearance on the Big Game in the early 2010s, took down Event #10: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship (8-Handed) for $426,744 after an intense and grueling final table battle that eventually saw him denying Jonathan Cohen a second bracelet.
Seiver turns 40 next April and thus will be eligible for the Poker Hall of Fame, a club home to other five-plus bracelet winners like Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, Johnny Chan, Erik Seidel and Phil Hellmuth.
Not only is the Hall of Fame already on Seiver's mind, it's the 39-year-old's primary motivator.

PokerNews' own, Pete Robinson, recapped a hand for us where he explained how he was able to build his stack early on in the day.
He mentioned that another player at the table was on tilt, and had announced that they were going to go all-in blind the following hand. The player did exactly that, and moved all in preflop for 16,000 without looking at their cards.
Robinson looked down at 8x8x from middle position and re-shoved to isolate the action.
Opponent: 10♦6♦ 
Pete Robinson: 8x8x
It was a clean runout of KxJxJx7x7x for Robinson, and the pot was pushed his way.
