Two Birds with One Nygaard

[user66118]

Vegard Nygaard was responsible for two of those recent notable eliminations mentioned a few minutes ago, and both in the same hand.

He, Mike Matusow, and Gavin Smith were tangled up in a three-way pot. Matusow and Smith both got all their remaining chips in on the flop. The board ended up reading {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

{3-Diamonds}

{8-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

.

Nygaard: {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Clubs}

{Q-Hearts}

{J-Clubs}

Matusow:

{A-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{7-Clubs}

{2-?}

Smith:

{A-?}

{7-Hearts}

{5-?}

{2-Hearts}

Nygaard made a big flush on the turn, and he took down the pot, eliminating the other two pros from the field.
