Steve Buckner

Steve Buckner was all in preflop for 135,000 UTG+1, and Ketan Pandya was also all in for 110,000 on the cutoff. Brian Green tanked through a single time extension chip before folding on the big blind so the two remaining players revealed their cards.

Pandya was eliminated on the hand to burst the money bubble, and at the same time at another table across the room Oded Aickin busted as well. Those two players will split $4,850 of the min-cash prize money, and every player remaining will now make at least $9,700. Buckner stacked up 270,000 after collecting the pot.

Steve Buckner – 270,000 (27 bb)
Ketan Pandya – Eliminated in tie for 112th place ($4,850)
Oded Aickin – Eliminated in tie for 112th place ($4,850)
