Tay Nguyen Wins a Big One

Tay flops a monster!
Tay flops a monster!
On a flop of {10-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {10-Clubs}, Matt Brady bet out 3,425 and was called by Tay Nguyen. The turn brought a {K-Diamonds}. After the two sized each others' stacks up, Brady checked and saw Nguyen bet 3,000, which he cautiously called. The river came down {7-Hearts} and Brady checked once more while commenting, "That's so sick, I put you on kings." Nguyen took advantage of the opportunity and bet enough to put Brady all in. Brady called and showed {A-?} {A-?}, but it was not enough, smashed by Nguyen's {4-?} {4-?} and flopped full house.

Tay Nguyen has around 46,000, while Brady was left shaking his head as he made his way to the rail.
