Hand #23: John Conroy

Jesper Hoog had the button. Peter Nguyen raised to 80,000 from middle position, and it folded to John Conroy, who moved all in for 533,000 total from the small blind. J.C. Tran folded from the big blind, and the action was back on Nguyen.

Nguyen exhaled, then began counting out his chips. A call here would require over half of his stack. Finally he folded, tossing his cards in such a way that an ace was visible. Conroy took the pot.
