Fabiano Kovalski opened to 900 from middle position and Eddy Sabat called in the hijack. Thi Xoa Nguyen made it 4,900 out of the small blind and Kovalski folded, Sabat called. On a flop of {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, Nguyen opted to check-raise from 5,000 to 15,000 and Sabat called with another 20,400 behind.

On the {7-Spades} turn, Nguyen gave it some thought and motioned with her hand to see the stack size of Sabat, then took another 30 seconds and moved all in. Sabat called and Nguyen knew she was caught, immediately admitted: "yeah, I am bluffing."

Eddy Sabat: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}
Thi Xoa Nguyen: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

The {A-Hearts} river improved Nguyen and she apologized, then let out an "oops." For Sabat it was the first bullet in the event and he will re-enter.

"He was just bluffing, I never thought he has queens there," Nguyen said while she was busy stacking the chips.
