Steve Buckner Makes His Presence Felt

Steve Buckner just took his seat in the tournament and is already chatting up a storm with his tablemates as he raises to 1,100 in early position. He receives two callers, including Sebastien Labbe in the hijack.

The flop comes and Buckner bets 2,500. Labbe then raises to 6,500 and Buckner calls.

Buckner checks dark heading to the turn and Labbe checks dark. Buckner then bets 6,000 in the dark as the falls on the river.

Labbe shakes his head and tanks for about 30 seconds before he mucks. Buckner shows as he takes the pot.

“I had you beat on the flop,” Labbe tells him.

Steve Buckner- 45,000 (150 bb)
Sebastien Labbe- 35,000 (117 bb)
