Nguyen Puts in a Big Shove on Gadeikis; Gordo Busts Retiere on the River
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 10♦9♦7♥, Darius Gadeikis bet 55,000 from the small blind and Christopher Nguyen raised to 145,000 in early position. Gadeikis called.
The turn was the 6♦ and Nguyen moved all in. Gadeikis, with around 350,000 remaining, quickly folded.
"Aces. It feels like aces," tablemate David Cabrera said after the hand.
At the same time at another table, Romain Retiere was all in for 110,000 from the hijack and Guillermo Gordo put him at risk in middle position.
Romain Retiere: Q♦Q♣ 
Guillermo Gordo: A♦10♦
Retiere remained in the lead with his queens through the turn on a board of K♠J♠5♥9♦, but Gordo caught the A♣ on the river to win the pot and send Retiere to the rail.
