Darvin Moon has the button. He makes it 3.0 million to go. Eric Buchman is in the small blind and moves all in. Moon shrugs and calls. Really.
Buchman:
Moon:
It's role reversal from Hand No. 270. This time Buchman has the weak ace and Moon has the two Broadway cards. The flop is
, no help for anybody. But we know how good Darvin Moon runs, so no surprise that the turn is the 
to give him a pair of kings and the lead. Buchman is down to a river ace to remain in the tournament. No sale -- the river comes 
and Buchman is busto!Moon stands up from his chair and offers Buchman a few words and a handshake. The other players also offer their congratualtions to a crest-fallen Buchman. Just a short while ago he seemed in control of this final table. Now he's out in 4th place.
Darvin Moon now has approximately 76.0 million.
Moon:
Buchman:
Buchman is behind, but at least he's drawing live for his survival. And the news will only improve from there. The flop shows up
, and Buchman takes the lead with his pair of kings. The 
that hits the turn locks up the pot as Moon can not catch any card to win. A meaningless 
fills out the board, and Moon sends a double up over to his opponent.Buchman - 23,800,000
Moon - 50,825,000
The flop comes down
. Saout, sitting behind his massive chip stack, checks to Moon. Moon takes the pot down with a single bet of 10.0 million on the flop.

The shove sends Saout spiraling into the think tank, and he spends a long, quality session in there. Several minutes of gear-turning pondering follow, and Saout looks a bit unsure of his decision. Finally, and quietly, he says, "I call." Buchman has the covering stack, and so it's Saout now all in and at risk. The news is good though.
Showdown
Buchman:
Saout:
The flop comes out
, drawing a big reaction from the crowd for the first time in what seems like hours. The turn pairs the board with the , changing nothing, and the awakened crowd again grows loud. The 
fills out the board, and that too is a blank for Buchman.In the biggest pot of the 2009 Main Event, Antoine Saout has picked up the monstrous double. He's skyrocketed all the way up to 89,200,000, while Buchman is left with just 9,800,000 chips to work with.
