Men Gets There

Men "The Master" Nguyen
Men "The Master" Nguyen

With the flop reading {10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} Men Nguyen moved all in for 19,700. Barny Boatman quickly made the call and the four other players in the hand folded.

Nguyen: {10-}{8-}
Boatman: {J-}{j-}

Boatman held the advantage for now with the superior pair of jacks. Nguyen still had two cards to come and could potentially grab hold of something.

The {a-Hearts} on the turn changed nothing, but the {10-} on the river changed everything. Nguyen hit three of a kind tens and stole the lead from Boatman, prompting a few excited "yes!"s from Nguyen.
