Nguyen Runs Into Mann's Kings
Level 22
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Casey Mann three-bet to 225,000 in the big blind before Chin Nguyen four-bet to 700,000 in the small blind. Mann then moved all in, and Nguyen snap-called for 2,200,000.
Chin Nguyen: A♦Q♣
Casey Mann: K♠K♣
Nguyen was looking for an ace to stay alive in the massive pot, but Mann's kings stayed in the lead through the 10♠5♣2♥2♠5♥ board to earn him the pot and send Nguyen to the rail.
Mann moved up past 5,000,000 with that pot, while tablemate Vishal Barmadat is also sitting on around 5,000,000. According to Mann, a player under the gun had moved all in for 1,600,000 on the river with just six-seven offsuit, while Barmadat had made a straight with two eights. "Craziest thing I've seen," Mann said.
