Nguyen Crippled....Again

Soi Nguyen suffered a massive blow to his stack earlier today, but had since managed to work his stack all the way back up to over 100,000.

It just isn't Nguyen's day, it seems.

We caught up with Nguyen in a recent hand where he was in a three-way all in pot. Nguyen had his two opponents covered and hands were revealed.

Nguyen: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Opponent #1: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Opponent #2: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{3-Spades}{7-Spades}{9-Clubs} and the player with pocket tens scooped the pot with his set.

"I'm embarrassed by that," Nguyen's opponent said.

Nguyen is back down to just 18,000.
