Muthu Busts Nguyen

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Three Nguyens began the day and the High Roller is now down to one. The unfortunate Nguyen this time was Van Sang Nguyen who became involved in a raising war with Sathesh Muthu.

Nguyen, sitting in the small blind, was the man to pull the trigger first getting his 65,000 stack in as a five-bet shove from under-the-gun. Muthu called immediately and the cards were turned over.

Sathesh Muthu: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}
Van Sang Nguyen: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

Nguyen was in bad shape and did not improve when the board ran out {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{7-Spades}. Muthu climbed to 147,000 while Nguyen headed for the exit.

Here’s how the rest of the field is stacking up:
