Nguyen Takes From Gupta

Level 13 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

On the river of a board {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, Minh Nguyen in the small blind check-called a bet of 18,000 by Ashish Gupta in early position and was shown the {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for a busted gutshot and jack-nine high by Gupta. Nguyen had that beat with {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and dragged in the pot.

Nguyen then raised to 10,000 and Rehman Kassam jammed for 133,500 from one seat over. No call followed and Kassam added some big blinds to his stack.
