Scotty Nguyen Plays Aces to Perfection

Scotty Nguyen
Scotty Nguyen
Scotty Nguyen raises to 22,000 from the cutoff and Michael Pedley makes the call in position on the button.

They see a flop of {9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and both players check.

The turn brings the {K-Hearts} and Scotty checks. Pedley bets out 30,000 and Scotty looks like he is going to throw his hand away. He then reaches for chips in preparation for a call, before announcing “raise” and adding another 70,000 to the pot. Pedley thinks before shoving all of his 180,000 chips into the middle. Scotty makes the call.

Pedley: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Nguyen: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}

Everyone was surprised to see that Scotty had played his aces in this manner, and when the {4-Clubs} landed on the river, the gallery was thrilled to see the "Prince of Poker" raking in an enormous pot, eliminating Pedley in 40th place.
