Catching the action on the turn on a board of {8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{4-Spades}{6-Hearts}, Minh Nguyen fired out 14,500 and Emad Tahtouh made the call to see the {6-Diamonds} hit the river.

Nguyen checked and then called Tahtouh's river bet of 26,000 only to muck when Tahtouh flipped {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for trip sixes.

It's been a rough few minutes for Nguyen as he's down to 174,000 with Tahtouh up to 390,000 to be amongst the chip leaders.
