Nguyen Rebuilding

Kenny Nguyen started the day with a bang as he surged up the chip counts. He appeared to be the first to break 100K, reaching as high as 150,000. Unfortunately, things turned on Nguyen and he began losing, dropping back down to as low as 45,000.

The good news is Nguyen seems to have righted the ship. In a recent hand, a middle-position player raised to 5,200 and found a call from the player in the hijack. Nguyen then three-bet to 20,200 from the cutoff, which inspired folds all around. Nguyen added 10K+ to his stack without so much as a flop, bringing him up to 80,000.
