Daniel Buzgon Shoves On Mark Eddleman

Nov 18, 2011

Mark Eddleman raises to 1,600 from middle position, Ken Aldridge calls on the button, and Daniel Buzgon reraises to 6,200 out of the small blind.  Eddleman calls and Aldridge folds.

The flop comes [Ah10h3s] and Buzgon bets 3,600.  Eddleman calls.  The turn brings the [9c] and Buzgon checks.  Eddleman bets 8,300 and Buzgon thinks a bit before calling.

The river is the [Qc] and Buzgon checks again.  Eddleman bets 5,500 and Buzgon tanks for a couple of minutes before moving all-in for 46,500 more.

"Wow," Eddleman says.  "I should’ve checked."  Eddleman thinks for well over a minute, again saying "I almost checked it too."  After a couple of minutes of deliberation, on eof the players coming into the blinds calls the clock on Eddleman.

Eddleman protests that he hasn’t had much time to think, but the floor person begins the 60 second countdown nonetheless.  Aroudn 20 seconds into his minute, Eddleman tells Buzgon, "I flopped a set.  Set’s no good huh?"  He pauses, then adds, "Or do you think ace-queen is good?"

He thinks ten more seconds then announces, "Fold."

Buzgon almost doesn’t believe him and needs tablemate Matt Glantz and the dealer to confirm he folds before pushing his hand towards the muck.

"Nice hand," Glantz tells him.  "Klod would be proud," he adds, referring to their friend, Chris Klodnicki.  At that statement, Buzgon can’t resist showing his hand.

"Set of tens are good," he tells Eddleman. Then he turns over A-Q for a rivered two pair and takes the pot.

Daniel Buzgon – 98,000
Mark Eddleman – 100,000
