James Akenhead opened for 67,000 from middle position. Action folded to Minh Nguyen in the big blind, who raised to 200,000. Akenhead immediately pushed all in. Nguyen made the call with {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} and was dismayed to see Akenhead turn over pocket queens. The board came out {7-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {2-Spades} {5-Spades} to send Nguyen to the rail. He collects $52,021 for his efforts.
