Cuong Van Nguyen got off to a great start on Day 1c after taking half Tyler Corbett's stack in the very first hand, but his tournament life was just at risk.

We picked up the action on the turn with around 25,000 in the pot and a board reading {q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{a-Clubs}. Nguyen had checked, and his opponent bet 10,000 from the hijack. Nguyen check-raised all in for 95,500, and his opponent hit the tank before making the call with the {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a flush.

Nguyen rolled over the {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for the nut flush! The {3-Hearts} river was irrelevant, and Nguyen doubled to more than 200K!
