Kern Continues to Climbs, Sends Nguyen to the Rail

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Matthew Kern limped and Loc Nguyen raised to 35,000. Kern three-bet to 93,000 and Nguyen called to see the {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop. Kern check-called a bet of 125,000 from Nguyen and the {10-Hearts} landed on the turn.

Kern again tapped the table and Nguyen jammed all in, totaling around 255,000 and Kern called, putting Nguyen at risk of elimination.

Nguyen turned over {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for top two but was in rough shape when Kern showed {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds} for a better two pair. A {2-Clubs} river cemented the pot for Kern and Nguyen was eliminated from the tournament.
