Nguyen Takes Battle of Main Event Champs
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Joe McKeehen raised to 4,000 on the button, Qui Nguyen three-bet to 12,500 in the small blind, and McKeehen called.
The flop came 8♥A♥Q♣, and Nguyen bet 9,000. McKeehen quickly called to see the 8♦ turn.
Nguyen then bet 24,000, and McKeehen snap-folded as Nguyen took the pot, boosting his stack past 300,000.
