Mariano Scores a Double
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Rob Mariano was down to just 80,000 chips after losing an earlier pot and he shoved all in from middle position. The action folded to Turbo Nguyen in the big blind who peeked at his cards and verbally declared that he was calling.
Rob Mariano: 
Turbo Nguyen: 
"Fair fight," Nguyen said as the dealer spread the flop of 
. Mariano's ace-high was still ahead and the 
on the turn nor the 
on the river would change that as Mariano doubled up.
