Khoa Nguyen - 5th Place
Khoa Nguyen - 5th Place

Hand #104: Travis Rice raised to 350,000 from under the gun. Action came to Khoa Nguyen who flatted from the button, prompting Chris Drake to three-bet ship for 2.545 million from the small blind. Action came back to Rice and he announced a call. Nguyen went into the tank.

About two minutes passed before Nguyen called off for his own tournament life of about 2.8 million.

Rice: {J-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}
Drake: {A-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Nguyen: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Rice led with his jacks heading to the community cards and had a chance to score a double elimination. Drake quickly took the lead on the {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{6-Spades} flop, though, making trip aces. The {5-Spades} rolled off on fourth street, giving Nguyen a flush draw, but it did not come through as the {2-Diamonds} hit the river. Drake scooped the main pot while Rice was awarded the change from Nguyen's stack.

Nguyen collected $110,663 for his fifth place finish.
