Stud 8:

Sadly for his adoring fans, of which there are many from my experience at WSOP events, Men Nguyen will have to wait another few days before adding to his bracelet collection, after being snipered down by fellow pro Hoyt Corkins.

With a {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

visible and a {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

behind, Nguyen moved all in against Corkins, who held {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

in the hole and {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

on the felt.

A subsequent {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{6-Diamonds}

wasn't enough to save Nguyen, who succumbed to Corkins's {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

and resulting pair of tens, both players missing the low.
