A big hand just went down between Michael DeMichele and Shawn Buchanan. After some preflop back-and-forthing, the pair went to the flop having built a pot of 7,800. The flop came {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, DeMichele bet 5,500, Buchanan raised to 12,000, DeMichele reraised to 29,500, Buchanan reraised again to 85,000, and DeMichele committed his last 3,000 or so chips to make the call.

DeMichele turned over {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} for top set, while Buchanan tabled {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for middle set. The turn and river -- {7-Clubs}{6-Hearts} -- brought no case jack for Buchanan, and DeMichele claimed the massive pot.

DeMichele is up to 196,000, while Buchanan is now at 83,000.
