Nguyen Cracks Aces

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

"All in and a call," we heard a dealer shout at Table 48. We made our way over to discover Thao Nguyen pulling in a big pot.

The specifics escaped us, but we do know Nguyen and another player got it all in on the turn with a board reading {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

Nguyen: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Nguyen had gotten lucky to turn a set, and he was a big favorite to score the knockout. The dealer burned one last time and put out the {7-Spades}. Nguyen avoided an ace to send a player to the rail and nearly double his stack.
