Ship it to Armenia

[user101598]

Chris Grigorian, the self-proclaimed Armenia Express, was heads up with Shawn Buchanan with the board reading {a-Clubs} {a-Hearts} {k-Hearts} . Buchanan check-called a bet, and the turn brought the {7-Clubs} . Both players checked.

The {5-Clubs} completed the board, and Buchanan led out, leaving just 1,400 or so behind.

"Wow," Grigorian blurted.

He looked at his own stack, examined Buchanan's stack, then raised. Buchanan smiled, then went into the tank.

"Ship it to Armernia or ship it to Canada," Grigorian announced. "It's up to you."

Buchanan decided to fold {a-} {j-} face up, and Grigorian tabled {k-Clubs} {10-Clubs} for a flush. It was a brilliant fold by Buchanan, but saving his bets didn't help - he was eliminated a few hands later.
