Buckner Teaches Etiquette

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Steven Buckner
Steven Buckner

Steven "Cuz" Buckner got all his chips in the middle against two opponents after a preflop battle, with Buckner claiming he's never folding a hand like that in a $400 tournament.

Short Stack: JJ
Middle Position: AK
Steven Buckner: AK

"You guys are dead!" said the player holding the jacks.

Buckner said, "No we're not!" in reference to there still being some aces and kings left in the deck.

The dealer spread 457.

At this point, a player who had folded chirped in that they had an ace, which launched Buckner into saying, "You don't say that! Not in a tournament... it's absolutely rude."

The dealer then bricked out the Q and the 4 to which Buckner said, "That's fine! A nice guy like you, I don't mind payin'."

Buckner then reiterated the rudeness of the player who was out of the hand to kill their outs like that and the finger turned back on Buckner when he was accused of giving the strength of his hand away before action was complete.

Buckner shook off the accusations, as they were only in reference to him talking preflop and continued to chat with the rest of the players at the table.
