A big pot was brewing just after dinner for Kent Buckingham.

He was a facing a bet on a queen-high flop from the player on the button and he raised it up to 15,000. The button called and the turn brought the {5-Spades}. Buckingham wasted no time moving all in for 58,500 and the button tanked.

After eyeing his cards and chips repeatedly, the button called.

Kent Buckingham: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Button: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Buckingham was in a great spot with his over pair against top pair, top kicker. The river brought the {7-Hearts} and Buckingham scored a huge double in the early minutes after the break.
