Classic Cooler Sees Nguyen Chip Up

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Phong Than Nguyen

Adriano Scagnetti limped from middle position. Action folded around to Phong Nguyen in the big blind, who raised to 300,000. The limper responded by shoving and Nguyen snap-called.

Adriano Scagnetti: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Phong Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

It was an absolute cooler regardless of stack depth, though the current shallow average only made the sting worse for Scagnetti. The hand was not over yet, however, but the {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{j-Clubs} flop did keep Nguyen well in front. The {j-Diamonds} turn and {7-Diamonds} river bricked out to send a large pot Nguyen's way and eliminate Scagnetti in a cruel fashion.
