Kenneth Buck Eliminated in 7th Place (PHP870,000)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Kenneth Buck
Kenneth Buck

Kenneth Buck stood true to his word and folded every hand until he was forced all in for just 35,000 out of the big blind. Jaeyhun Lim limped in and so did Michael Falcon in the small blind. "Are you going to fold this time?" Falcon joked to Buck, who replied "I have a good hand, I am all in."

The flop fell {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and both players checked. On the {5-Diamonds} turn, Falcon bet 150,000 and Lim folded.

Kenneth Buck: {A-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
Michael Falcon: {A-Clubs}{4-Spades}

A split pot was very likely, but Falcon had a straight and flush draw as well. The {4-Diamonds} on the river indeed gave the Dane two pair and Buck was eliminated in 7th place, missing out on the target he had announced to the table. Buck receives PHP870,000 (~$17,280) and the remaining six players have PHP1,170,000 (~$23,238) locked up.
