"Call Me Lucky"

Level 13 : 700/1,400, 200 ante

We heard a commotion coming from a table by the stage, so we meandered over to see what happened. When we arrived, the board read {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}, and {j-Clubs}{j-Spades} was sitting in front of Quan Nguyen.

Nguyen had just doubled through an opponent who held two aces.

"Lucky," Nguyen said when we asked him for his name. "Call me lucky."

Nguyen, who was the Bossier City Casino Champion and will be playing on the National Championship, now sits with 87,000 chips.
