"All You Guys are Playing for Second Place"

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Kenny Nguyen opened under the gun for 1,100 and got three callers. The flop came {4-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {6-Clubs} and action checked around. The turn brought the {10-Clubs} and again action checked around. The river came {2-Diamonds}, the big blind checked and Nguyen bet 3050. The UTG+1 player called and the others folded.

Nguyen smiled and tabled {K-Hearts} {Q-Hearts} and the UTG+1 player frowned and said, "I knew you had king high but I didn't know the kicker," as he folded.

Nguyen took the pot with just king high and said to the table, "All you guys are just playing for second place."
