Buchanan Crippled, Volpe Doubled, Buchanan Busted

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

First, Shawn Buchanan was crippled when he and his opponent got it all in with Buchanan holding {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} and his opponent tabling {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}. The board ran out {k-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} and Buchanan was down to just 325.

Next, Paul Volpe doubled through Ravi Raghavan when his {a-}{7-} looked like it would be outkicked by the {a-}{9-} of Raghavan, until a rivered {7-} gave him two pair.

Finally, with Buchanan all in for less in the big blind, and an opponent + Volpe all in and both holding {a-}{q-}, Buchanan's {9-}{6-} couldn't catch up and he hit the rail.
