Buckley Runs into the Nuts

Level 11
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Gabriel Wechter saw action fold to him on the button and opened to 6,000, receiving calls from both Al Hart in the small blind and DJ Buckley in the big blind. The flop came and Hart checked to Buckley, who went all in for 19,500, roughly a pot-sized bet. Wechter quickly folded and Hart called immediately thereafter.
Al Hart:
DJ Buckley:
Buckley had flopped bottom two pair but ran it into Hart's king-high straight.
"Deuce!" said Hart. The turn came .
"Deuce!" responded Buckley. The river accomplished the same thing as a deuce, leaving Hart's straight to top Buckley's tens up and eliminate him from the tournament.
