Buckner's "Not Folding Even if it Was a Million Dollars"

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

With 3,600 in the middle and five players on the K74 flop, the action checked to a player who fired out a bet of 1,800. The button, small blind, and Steven 'Cuz" Buckner all made the call.

The 9 fell on the turn and Buckner checked to the player who bet the flop before he announced a pot-sized bet. The button got out of the way and the action was on Buckner as he asked for a count.

"I don't think I can fold this hand," Said Buckner after being told the pot-sized bet was 10,800. Buckner put in a raise and his opponent called off his stack of 15,000 before both hands were on their backs.

Buckner turned a wrap straight draw and a flush draw and the Q river completed his straight to crack the set of kings of his opponent and drag the pot.

"You know I am new to this game (pot-limit omaha) but I ain't folding that hand even if it were a million dollars to call!"
