Bruce Nguyen Bolts Up Counts

Nguyen: happy days!
Nguyen: happy days!
Bruce Nguyen has soared up to the top of the chip counts on 218,000 in chips after eliminating the impressively named Andrey Vgnorum.

Nguyen made it 20,000 to go before the flop, Vgnorum shoved for his last 35,500 and as the others got out of the way, Nguyen snap-called.

Nguyen: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Vgnorum: {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {K-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts}{K-Hearts}, giving both players trips but Vgnorum was vanquished by Nguyen's ace kicker.
