Silverman's Big Blind Hurts Nguyen

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante

Action picked up on the turn in a heads-up pot. The board showed {4-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}. Stephen Silverman sat in the big blind and checked it over to Qui Nguyen. From early position, Nguyen bet 4,100, Silverman made the call.

The river brought the {5-Spades}, and Silverman checked again. Nguyen thought about the spot for about a minute before deciding to bet 7,000. Silverman made the call fairly quickly.

Nguyen rolled over {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for top pair, but that was bested by the {7-Spades}{4-Spades} of Silverman who took down the pot.
