Xuan Nguyen - 18th Place

Xuan Nguyen didn't make many friends when he slowrolled preflop a few days ago with pocket aces. Thus there wasn't much sympathy when he pushed all in preflop against Binh Nguyen with an inferior hand and was called.

Xuan: {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

Binh:

{10-Clubs}

{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{8-Diamonds}

{4-Hearts}

{4-Clubs}

, which was no help for Xuan. Binh collected the pot to move to 1.66 million in chips and the apparent chip lead; Xuan headed to the cage to collect $51,114 in prize money.
