Nguyen Nails Another Knockout

Former November Niner Soi Nguyen was one of the late registrants in this tournament, and he benefited greatly from the starting table he drew. Nguyen built up a stack to 50,000 before getting moved, but he hasn't slowed down since, as he just collected another bounty to get up to 75,000.

We caught up with the three way action on a flop that read {2-Spades}{k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. David Miscikowski led out for 2,000, and the next player to act moved all in for 15,000. Nguyen was on the button, and he thought for about 20 seconds before moving all in, having both players covered. Miscikowski got out of the way, and the cards were tabled.

Nguyen: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Opponent: {5-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

Nguyen would need to dodge a club to win the hand, and the board completed with red cards: {10-Hearts} on the turn, and {9-Diamonds} on the river. Nguyen locked up the knockout, and is one of our chip leaders as we approach dinner.
