Nguyen Rolls On

Scotty Nguyen
Scotty Nguyen
We're not quite sure how Richard Edwards got as short as 1,150 chips. There was never an all in and call at his match against Scotty Nguyen. Nevertheless, that's all the chips Edwards had when his push with {A-Hearts} {3-Clubs} was called by Nguyen's {6-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}.

When had plenty of outs going into the river. The board developed {4-Clubs} {3-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {10-Hearts}. Nguyen could win with a 5, 6, 7, or 9. It was the {6-Spades} on the river that sealed his victory.

"Thank you, baby" Nguyen said to the dealer, shaking his hand. Nguyen then blew a kiss to the gallery and cleared the set.
