Not So Masterful

Men "The Master" Nguyen has been eliminated
Men "The Master" Nguyen has been eliminated
On a flop of {K-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {5-Clubs}, Men "The Master" Nguyen got in a raising battle with an opponent. Men was short stacked and found himself all in with just a few bets.

"I just want to go home," said Nguyen as the players revealed their hands. Nguyen held {Q-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} and his opponent showed {K-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {7-Clubs} {4-Clubs}. Upon seeing what his opponent held, Men went on to say, " Oh, I might get the low."

The turn came the {3-Diamonds} and then the river came the {3-Hearts}. Nguyen was able to make trip threes, but his opponent's full house was better and sent The Master to the rail.
