No Final for Nguyen

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Minh Quang Nguyen
Minh Quang Nguyen

During the 2022 WPT Prime Vietnam stop in Hanoi, Minh Quang Nguyen reached the final table in a side event and the Main Event which he welcomed with loud "final, final" announcements. That will, however, not be the case this time as the local player just crashed out and made it be heard.

His screaming alerted a crowd around the table to see what had happened and Nguyen had gotten it in on a {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs} turn against Changhwan Lee.

Minh Quang Nguyen: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Changhwan Lee: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

The {9-Hearts} river was the reason for the loud complaint as Nguyen was certainly not thrilled to come up second-best.

Koh Chips Up Through Talordpong

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

On the river of a {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} board, Hsien Ren Koh bet 35,000 out of the small blind into a loaded pot of what appeared to be more than 180,000. Prommin Talordpong was deep in the tank in the cutoff and the clock was called on him.

Talordpong called within the 30 seconds countdown and was unable to beat the {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} of Koh.

Yong Scores a Double

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Having carefully waited for a spot to get his chips in, Wai Keong Yong was at risk for 26,500 and looked up by one of the table big stacks in Shardul Parthasarathi.

Wai Keong Yong: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Shardul Parthasarathi: {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

The kicker played a crucial role on the {10-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} board as Yong had locked up the double on the turn.

Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Nam Hoang Nguyen

Somehow, Hieu Trung Doan Nguyen had a stack of around 80,000 in the middle before the flop and was looked up by Nam Hoang Nguyen, who had the far bigger stack.

Hieu Trung Doan Nguyen: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Nam Hoang Nguyen: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The dominated pair found no help on the {10-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} board as the rich got richer.

Nguyen Felted by Sim

Level 15 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

In a hand that took place just before the break, Anh Duc Nguyen was all-in after flop of {9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{2-Spades} and looked up by Peter Sim.

Anh Duc Nguyen: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Peter Sim: {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Sim was relieved to be shown a weaker hand than he had expected and the {9-Clubs} turn locked up the pot for him, making the {2-Clubs} river a formality.
