Eric Buchman Eliminated in 4th Place ($2,502,890)

Eric Buchman - 4th Place
Eric Buchman - 4th Place
Hand No. 271 -

Darvin Moon has the button. He makes it 3.0 million to go. Eric Buchman is in the small blind and moves all in. Moon shrugs and calls. Really.

Buchman: {A-Diamonds} {5-Clubs}
Moon: {K-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}

It's role reversal from Hand No. 270. This time Buchman has the weak ace and Moon has the two Broadway cards. The flop is {2-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}, no help for anybody. But we know how good Darvin Moon runs, so no surprise that the turn is the {K-Hearts} to give him a pair of kings and the lead. Buchman is down to a river ace to remain in the tournament. No sale -- the river comes {5-Hearts} and Buchman is busto!

Moon stands up from his chair and offers Buchman a few words and a handshake. The other players also offer their congratualtions to a crest-fallen Buchman. Just a short while ago he seemed in control of this final table. Now he's out in 4th place.

Darvin Moon now has approximately 76.0 million.
