Hand #212 - Eric Buchman

PokerStars sponsored player Eric Buchman

Antoine Saout has the button. Eric Buchman is first to enter the pot, and he does so with a raise to 2 million in early position. Antoine Saout makes the call in position, and they're the only two who make it to the flop.

The dealer runs out {3-Spades}

for the first thrice cards, and Buchman quickly reaches for chips. He slows down while he decides on the appropriate amount, and he finally settles on 3 million straight. Saout doesn't like it, but he lays his hand down to Buchman's pressure.

Hand #211 - Jeff Shulman

[user75032]

Joe Cada has the button. Everyone clears out in front Antoine Saout's small blind. Like Moon, Saout is a guy who looks exhausted. He limps in from the small blind, giving Jeff Shulman a chance to pop it up to 2.8 million. Saout musters up the energy to pitch his cards into the muck.

Hand #206 - Jeff Shulman

[user66118]

Joe Cada has the button. He starts the action with a 2,000,000-chip wager, and Antoine Saout quickly folds his small blind. Jeff Shulman isn't going anywhere from his big blind though. He puts his hands behind his stacks of chips and just begins to nudge them into the betting area with an all-in move. Before the chips have even traveled a couple inches forward, Cada's cards are already in the muck.
