Ladies and gentlemen, we have a final table!

It folded around to Seth Fischer on the small blind, who shoved. Scotty Nguyen on the big blind called all in.

Fischer:

Board:

Fischer has reeled himself in a flush, and Nguyen becomes our unfortunate final-table bubbler.

Song Forces a Preflop Fold From Minieri

[user46392]

Kevin Song raised to 37,000 and Dario Minieri dwelled up on the button. He dwelled for a long time. Eventually someone pointed out that it was his turn. "Oh," he perked up, "I raise." He made it 125,000. Only for Song to make it another 275,000, leaving himself 600,000 behind. Eventually Minieri folded.

Said Song, "You know what I got? You know?"

"You got kings now?" inquired Minieri.

"No, I don't show," decided Song. "Scotty, I show. Not you. But if you go all in I call." Minieri expresses doubt. "I know you have something," continued Song, "Otherwise you don't raise me." Raucous laughter from the rail.

Scotty Nguyen Low

[user4144]

Scotty Nguyen raised it up to 42,000, only for Kevin Song to make it 142,000 the next seat down.

"This is it, boy," threatened Nguyen as he called.

On the {A-Spades}

flop, Scotty led out with a bet of 100,000.

Song asked for a count.

"I got two hundred thousand and aces fulls," joked Nguyen with a trademark chuckle.

Song went into the tank.

"It's me and you against the world," added Nguyen.

After a long pause, Song reached out for a stack of green 25,000 chips and made it a total of 275,000 to play.

"You got aces full, huh baby?"

Nguyen's face then turned deadly serious as he realized the gravity of his decision. He scratched his chin, counted out of his chips and leant back on his chair.

Eventually, he picked up an all yellow chip, flicked it up into the air and said, "If it lands red baby, I'll play," thus confirming the fold.

As Nguyen mucked his cards, he was desperate to see his opponent's hand: "Come on, baby, show the bluff. What you got? I know you got no ace-king, you got lucky on me didn't you?"

Initially braced to fold, pressure from Nguyen and the foreboding crowd seemed to encourage Song into revealing {K-Spades}
