Doubles for Kashyap and Nguyen

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Minh Nguyen
Minh Nguyen

Nauvneel Kashyap scored a big double with {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} against the {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} of Jake Mehmet when the board came {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{k-Clubs}.

Moments later one table over, Minh Nguyen jammed for 50,000 with the {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and Jason Gray put him at risk with the {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

The {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop sent Gray into the lead, however, Tolly Sakellariou added "you got diamonds." Sure enough, the {k-Diamonds} turn and {3-Diamonds} river restored the preflop order and Nguyen doubled with the nut flush.
