Sick Beat for Buchanan

Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

We caught the action on a jack-high flop when an unknown player got his stack of around 1,700 in and received a call from WSOP Circuit regular Austin Buchanan, who had the bigger stack by just 50 in chip. The unknown player turned over {a-}{j-} for top pair and top kicker, but it was no good as Buchanan held the {q-}{q-} overpair.

Unfortunately for Buchanan, who is donning a bright orange Miami Dolphins hoodie, the dealer burned and turned a {J-} to give his opponent trips. Buchanan remained silent but was far from content with the sudden turn of events. The river was a blank and Buchanan was crippled before being eliminated a short time later.
