Event #34: $1,500 Seven-Card Stud

Eric Buchman nabbed his second World Series of Poker bracelet today, winning a short final table of Event #34: $1,500 Seven-Card Stud for $118,785. Few could question Buchman's limit poker prowess, as he has a bracelet in limit hold'em along with a second-place finish in eight-game, a second-place finish in limit hold'em, and a third-place finish in stud at the WSOP.

Buchman may be best known for a deep run in the 2009 Main Event, which resulted in a fourth-place score for over $2.5 million. Coincidentally, Buchman made it two 2009 November Niners to take down bracelets in two days after 2009 winner Joe Cada scored a second bracelet last night.

New York native Buchman topped a field of 345 to take down the title,

Event #36: $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball

Day 2 of Event #36: $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball began with 38 players remaining from the starting field of 241 entrants. Among them were bracelet winners Brian Rast, Eli Elezra, and Phil Hellmuth. However, none were able to reach the final table. Hellmuth, in fact, was eliminated by end-of-day chip leader Steven Wolansky.

The official final table was reached shortly after the dinner break and following Scott Bohlman's elimination in seventh place, the remaining six players opted to bag and tag for the night. Among those still in the field is German football star Max Kruse, as well as 2010 WSOP November Niner Joseph Cheong.

Here is the complete lineup for the final table:
Seat   Player   Chips
2   Samuel Touil   233,000
