Fast Start for Buchman
Yesterday it was Dniel Negreanu's day to catch rolled-up hands and to make quads, including a really brutal hand against David Grey where Negreanu made quad jacks and Grey made quad sixes. Today might be Eric Buchman's day.
The 2009 November Niner started the day in third place in the chip counts. He quickly added to his stack in a hand against Edouard Mignot-Bonnefous by firing on every street. On sixth street, with Buchman's board showing a queen, two kings and an ace, Mignot-Bonnefous raised Buchman's bet. Buchman three-bet, then fired dark on the river. Mignot-Bonnefous called and saw the bad news -- Buchman made quad kings.
With that pot Buchman is up to about 135,000.
