White Eliminates Nguyen

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Andrew White

Minh Nguyen opened from under the gun and Andrew White called from the button.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, Nguyen continued with a bet of 2,000 and White responded with a raise to 6,000. Nguyen shoved for 16,000 and White called with the bigger stack.

Minh Nguyen: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Andrew White: {9-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

Nguyen had flopped top pair while holding the top-kicker. White had the same pair but the lower kicker, he was also sitting on a flush draw.

The turn brought them the {j-Spades} which didn't change things, the {2-Spades} on the river however gave White two pair to eliminate Nguyen from the tournament.
