Chad Siu had the button. It folded to Peter Nguyen, who completed from the small blind. Rasmus Nielsen raised an additional 55,000 -- just what he did the last time Nguyen tried to limp in to see a flop with him. Last time, Nguyen folded, but this time he called.

The flop came {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{J-Clubs}

. Both checked. The turn was the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

, and both checked again. They also checked the {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

on the river.

Nguyen showed {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

for a pair of nines. Nielsen showed {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

, and Nguyen took the pot.
