Scotty Nguyen

Scotty Nguyen raised from early position, Anton Morgenstern three-bet from the small blind, Nguyen shoved for about 200,000, and Morgenstern called to put Nguyen at risk.

Scotty Nguyen: {A-Spades}{J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Anton Morgenstern: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}

Morgenstern had the edge with his aces and Nguyen needed to improve to stay alive. The board ran out {Q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Morgenstern took the pot with top set to end Nguyen's tournament.
