It happened to be Racener to be eliminated first by Buchman’s flush in Stud-8, followed by Adam Kornuth in No Limit Hold’em. John Juanda came next, Desmond Portano finished in 5th place then Brent Hanks was railed. With Michele Limongi sent home, Monnette and Buchman played the short heads-up.
Monnette began with a major lead with 2,850,000 in chips against his opponent’s 715,000 and Buchman never had the chance to turn the tide. In Stud-8, he shoved on the 4th street of the last hand:
Buchman: (
