No Duck on the River for The Master

[user4144]

going for the Nguyen

Men 'The Master' Nguyen has enjoyed a good start to today's proceedings, although he has experienced his fair share of ups and downs.

Earlier on he eliminated a foe with {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

versus

{7-Hearts}

{7-Diamonds}

on a

{2-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{6-Clubs}

board.

However, he did suffer a hit at one point, doubling up Eric Husler in the process. After calling The Master's 300 preflop raise, Husler check-raised all in on an {8-Diamonds}

{8-Diamonds}

{K-Spades}

{6-Hearts}

board.

"I have nothing, but I want to call you," announced The Master as he revealed a lowly {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{2-Diamonds}

. Husler showed {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

, which subsequently survived a duck-less {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

turn and

{10-Diamonds}

river.

Nguyen now on circa 7,000 in chips.
