Buckner Shows a Pair; De Silva Wins a Small One

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Steven Buckner
Steven Buckner

The early position player opened to 4,000 and was called by Alan Goasdoue from the cutoff. Steven "Cuz" Buckner then three-bet to 16,000 from the big blind.

The original raiser quickly folded and Goasdoue followed suit. Buckner then tabled his 10?10? to show his opponents that he really had it.

Then on a nearby table, Upeshka De Silva opened to 4,500 from early position and was called by the big blind.

The 8?7?7? flop checked through to the 10? turn. The big blind then check-folded after De Silva bet 6,000.
