Buckingham Looks Up Jung
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
On the river of a Q♥10♠8♠K♠3♠ board, Richard Buckingham bet 250,000 from the big blind. Chahn Jung then opted for a raise to 925,000 in the under-the-gun position and that sent Buckingham into the tank. He eventually called and Jung showed his A♥K♣, which Buckingham had beat with the Q♠J♥.
"You either have ace-king with spade or not," Buckingham concluded while raking in the pot and added "that was a very good raise":
