Yes Huy Can

It's been a good start to this Day 1b flight for Huy Nguyen, and we just caught him in a heads-up pot with Jerry Yang.

Yang had limped in from middle position, and Nguyen stuck in a raise from late position to go heads-up with the World Champ. The flop brought {4-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {K-Spades} and a check from Yang, and he called Nguyen's 550-chip continuation bet. Nguyen got another 875 in on the {5-Diamonds} turn and 1,625 behind the {A-Spades} river, and Yang called him all the way down reluctantly.

By showdown, Nguyen knew his {K-Hearts} {J-Clubs} was good, and he tabled it firmly as if it were the nuts. Yang studied what he was seeing as he slowly shook his head up and down, and he slipped his cards back to the dealer face-down.
