Buchman Doubles, Allen Eliminated in Three-Way All In

Eric Buchman

Eric Buchman open-shoved for 604,000 from the button, Robert Allen moved all in for less from the small blind and after tanking for a bit and asking for a count, Francois Balmigere made the call from the big blind.

Allen {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}
Balmigere {9-Spades} {9-Clubs}
Buchman {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}

The flop came down {Q-Spades} {J-Hearts} {7-Diamonds}, Buchman's tens leading. The turn, though fell the {10-Hearts} -- Buchman hitting a set, but Allen making a Broadway straight. The {7-Spades} on the river, however, paired the board, giving Buchman the monster pot with tens full. Balmigere dropped to 1,260,000 and Allen was eliminated in 140th place.

After the hand, Buchman was up to 1,350,000.
