Nguyen the Last Champ Standing as He Takes Out Harrington
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Dan Harrington moved all in for 94,000 under the gun before Nenad Dukic reraised to 172,000 in the hijack. "Gamble for $10K," Qui Nguyen said as he shoved for 560,000 in the big blind. Dukic, with around 350,000 remaining, then went into the tank.
"If you win we go gamble it away. Play some baccarat," Keith Lehr told Nguyen. Dukic eventually folded, leaving Nguyen heads-up against Harrington.
Dan Harrington: 10♥8♠ 
Qui Nguyen: A♣5♣
Nguyen hit a pair on the 5♠6♠2♦ flop, then improved to trips on the 5♦ turn to leave Harrington needing to complete a straight on the river.
The 8♦ river arrived to late for Harrington as he was sent to the rail while Nguyen collected his third Main Event bounty of the day.
