Nguyen Scores Knockout
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Toan Nguyen began the hand with a raise to 2,800 from early position before being called in the hijack. The small blind player responded with a jam for 24,000 and was called by both Nguyen and the opponent in the hijack to be at risk.
Nguyen chose to jam on the 9♣6♥K♠ flop, which elicited a fold from the hijack.
Opponent: J♥J♦
Toan Nguyen: 9♦9♥
Nguyen outflopped his opponent with a set of nines to take the dominant lead.
The 4♥ turn and the Q♦ river awarded Nguyen the pot.
