Board Bricks to Bust Vinh

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

On a three-way turn of 6K87, there is around 60,000 in the pot when Bao 'Tic-Tac' Vinh moved all in for roughly 70,000.

Tony Nguyen was next to act and he thought about it for a long while before he slid his cards into the middle and the action was then on Rory Bome who quickly tossed out a chip to call.

Bao Vinh: J7
Rory Bome: AA

Bome was ahead with his pocket pair of aces, but any jack, seven, or heart would give the pot to Kanazawa.

Unfortunately for Vinh, the river was the brick 9 and Bome was pushed the pot while Vinh was sent to the rail. Meanwhile, Nguyen was kicking himself for folding king-ten as he would have made a straight on the river.
