“Come on, do the right thing one time,” Buckner pleads with the dealer after finding out he’s dominated. The flop comes and Buckner is already telling Abate “nice hand” and getting up from his seat.

The board runs out and Buckner makes a quick exit from the room as Abate pretends to wipe his brow while taking in the pot.
