Nguyen Turns Ace to Double Through Opponent
Level 5
: 300/500, 500 ante
A series of preflop raises saw Ha Nguyen get his 18,400 stack in the middle from the big blind and was called by the player under the gun.
Ha Nguyen: ![]()
![]()
Opponent: ![]()
![]()
It was a classic race with Nguyen looking to connect with either of his two over cards but neither came on the ![]()
![]()
flop.
"Ace one time," Nguyen asked the dealer as they dropped the
on the turn to put him out in front.
Nguyen just needed to fade a jack on the river and did, as the
completed the board to secure his double-up.
