Buchanan, who previously finished 10th in the Big 30 Stack event at the World Series of Poker Circuit Calgary in October 2025, found himself in a tough spot. Holding eight-seven of spades, he shoved over 200k from late position. Lee Clark, a seasoned poker player who finished 5th in the same event, called from the small blind with pocket sevens. Despite turning a quick draw, Buchanan couldn't improve his hand, leading to his elimination.
