Nguyen Spikes The Turn

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Frank Nguyen, a poker dealer at Caesar's Palace here in Las Vegas and an opponent in the big blind had both invested 25,200 on a {5-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Hearts} flop to see the {8-Diamonds} roll off on the turn. The big blind jammed for his last 50,000, and Nguyen snapped him off.

Frank Nguyen: {9-Spades}{8-Spades}
Opponent: {9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}

Nguyen's turned two pair were well out in front of his opponent's flopped two pair, and the {a-Clubs} river scored the knockout for Nguyen.
