Buckley Picks Off Hardt's Bluff
Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Adrian Buckley opened to 100,000 in middle position and was called by Clay Hardt on the button and Anthony Basile in the small blind. The flop fell 
and the action checked around to the 
on the turn.
Both Basile and Buckley checked again but Hardt splashed in a bet of 125,000. Basile instantly folded but Buckley hung around for the 
on the river.
Buckley checked once more and Hardt tossed in a bet of 125,000 again. Buckley instantly one-chipped him and Hardt tabled 
for just king-high. Buckley held 
for top pair and raked in the pot.
