Nguyen Puts Pressure on Ong
Level 21
: 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
David Ong opened to 55,000 from middle position and Joe Nguyen and Benjamin Garrick defended from the blinds.
The flop came out 3♦4♠J♦ and action checked to Ong who continued for 55,000 but then Nguyen check-raised to 135,000 and Garrick quickly folded.
After some pause, Ong made the call and they went heads-up to the turn 2♣. Nguyen led out for 150,000 and Ong made the call once again to see the river fall the 10♠.
Nguyen fired again for 200,00 and Ong went into the tank for around 30 seconds before he decided to toss in his cards and the pot was awarded to Nguyen.
