Buchanan Buckles

It was five-way action into a raised pot on a flop of {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} when we arrived on the scene; all the players, including Kristian Lunardi and Shawn Buchanan in late position, checked it down before the dealer peeled off the turn of the {9-Clubs}.

Again, the action checked around, but this time Lunardi fired out a bet and Buchanan called, forcing the others out of the way before the river {4-Clubs} completed the board. Lunardi fired out 6,525 and Buchanan went into the tank for about two-and-a-half minutes before making the call, only to muck after Lunardi showed {J-Spades}{9-Spades} for the full house.

The Aussies are really tearing it up in the "True Blue" section of the Amazon Room today!
